Greene, Jackie By the Side of the Road, Dressed to Kill lyrics

You just can't trust them pretty girls, they're only here to wreck your world
And make sure you never get to sleep at night
I don't know the reasons why, they all wanna hang you out to dry
You ain't got strength enough left to fight

Oh, but I'm, I'm in trouble
Like I know, you're bound to get in trouble too
And I know that it won't be long
Before the man you love is loving someone new

I walked up to the river bridge and stood myself up on the ledge
And screamed out to everyone, ‽Let me be”
I got me a worried mind, gonna find me a worried kind
Of girl, who's lonesome just like me

And I know, I'm just one of your poor boys

That you swore, you'd never leave behind
And I see, I can see right through you
And I know, you're not my kind

Now all my money's gone to someplace that it don't belong
I'm singing the 'Broken-down-poorboy blues'
I ain't got nothing to my name but nothing is my favorite game
To play 'cause there's never anything to lose

And I know that I'm in trouble
Like I know, you're bound to get in trouble too
And I know that it won't be long
Before the man you love is loving someone new
