Mark Lanegan Band - Can't Come Down lyrics

(Lanegan)

Don't give a damn for money

Never did I give a damn for gold
Tell me little doll, talk some sweet nothing
A river runs deep and cold
Don't know why but it keeps running
Don't know why I can't come down
Moses has stood on the mountain
Devil made it thunder and rain
Girl I ain't afraid of temptation
No I ain't afraid of some pain
Watchin' little doll she just come runnin'
Running straight away
Straight 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 have no thing for 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...
