Lyrics
FREE BLEEDER
Music & Lyrics by Shane Golden
I NEVER KNEW BABY YOU COULD BE OH SO COLD
YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON ME
I LACED YOUR NECK WITH DIAMONDS AND YOUR FINGERS WITH GOLD
FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE
TROUBLED TIMES THEY COME SOMETIMES BUT YOU HIT THE DOOR
WITHOUT A BACKWARD GLANCE
WHY COULD'NT I SEE THE LIES MUCH LONGER BEFORE
YOU KILLED A SWEET ROMANCE
YOU’VE BEEN PLAYING CHARADES SINCE SO LONG AGO
I SHOULD’VE KNOWN MY LOVE CHECK WOULD RETURN
NOW THE CIRCLE IS BROKEN AND THE BRIDGE IS BURNED
PEOPLE KEEP TELLIN’ ME THEY SAY “LISTEN MAN, YOU DON’T NEED HER”
I DON’T NEED HER
SHE’S A GOLD DIGGIN’ GAL, SHE’S OUT FOR NUMBER ONE
I DON’T NEED HER, SHE’S A FREE BLEEDER
LEAVIN’ LOVE LYIN’ HERE LORD IT MAKES SUCH A MESS
YOUR SCENT IS STILL IN MY ROOM
YOU CRUSHED MY HEART FOR THE LAST TIME, BUT YOU DIDN’T GUESS
I WAS ALREADY THROUGH
HAPPY TRAILS, A SWEET GOODBYE, AND ADIOS
MAY YOUR FORTUNE BE WELL
SYMPATHY LIES WITH THE NEXT GUY WHO PLAYS YOUR HOST
BUYING THE THINGS YOU SELL
YOU’VE BEEN PLAYING CHARADES SINCE SO LONG AGO
I SHOULD’VE KNOWN MY LOVE CHECK WOULD RETURN
NOW THE CIRCLE IS BROKEN AND THE BRIDGE IS BURNED
PEOPLE KEEP TELLING ME THEY SAY “LISTEN MAN, YOU DON’T NEED HER”
I DON’T NEED HER
SHE’S A GOLD DIGGIN’ GAL, SHE’S OUT FOR NUMBER ONE
I DON’T NEED HER, SHE’S A FREE BLEEDER
PEOPLE KEEP TELLING ME THEY SAY “LISTEN MAN, YOU DON’T NEED HER”
I DON’T NEED HER
SHE’S A GOLD DIGGIN’ GAL, SHE’S OUT FOR NUMBER ONE
I DON’T NEED HER, SHE’S A FREE BLEEDER
