Mark Lanegan - Can't Come Down lyrics

Don't give a damn for money

Never did I give a damn for gold

Tell me little doll, talk some sweet nothings

The river runs deep and cold

I don't know why but it keeps running

I don't know why I can't come down

Moses he stood on the mountain

The devil made it thunder and rain

Girl I ain't afraid of temptation

No I ain't afraid of some pain

Watch the little doll she just comes running

Running straight away

Bring it to me I got sweet nothing

And only myself to blame

I don't know why I just keep running

Don't know why I can't come down

Walk, don't you walk on me,

Don't you

Step, don't you step on me,

Don't you

Walk, don't walk on me

Don't you step on me

Don't need no paper money

Got no jones for gold

All I got today is some sweet nothing

Nothing to take away

Don't know why I just keep running

Don't know why I can't come down

Don't know why - somebody

Somebody hears today

Don't know why, sweet nothing

Nothing to take away

No I ain't afraid of temptation

No ain't afraid of some pain

No ain't afraid of some pain

Somebody, somebody

Somebody, can't come down

Somebody, can't come down

Can't come down

Somebody, can't come down

can't come down...
