Dead South, The - Deadman's Isle Lyrics






Well I've slept out on these streets before
And I've drowned myself in every bar
But not like I did with you
Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
I hope they never televise
The things that I used to do

And now I'm on the run again
For the dumbest thing that I ever did
And I don't know what I should do
You said "You can hardly see you won't get far"
So I let the dog drive the car
And hoped that I'd make it through
And I did

But I might be goin' away for a while
I might be goin' away for a while
They might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
I'll be goin' away for a while

I've practiced stuff and stumbling around
But that night really knocked me down
Now I don't know what to do
And now that dog went off but I can't blame him
Gotta get done under this mess I'm in
I won't be goin' home too soon

I might be goin' away for a while
I might be goin' away for a while
They might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
I'll be goin' away for a while

Well I never should've let that dog drive
I never should've let him in
I never should've drunk that last rye
I never should've drunk that gin
Now I've got one more night stuck inside of a police station
And I don't think I'll see that dog again

I've got one more night of seein' stars
Sleep on my ass behind the bars
I guess they found out where I've been

And now I'm goin' away for a while
And now I'm goin' away for a while
I guess they're shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
I hope they never televise
This one last night with crooked eyes
Let's light this city up tonight

Cause I'm goin' away
I'm goin' away
I'm goin' away for a while

    Well I've slept out
    On these streets before
    And I#ve drowned myself

    In every bar
    But not like I did with you
    Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
    I hope they never televise
    The things that I used to do

    And now I'm on the run again for the dumbest thing that I ever did
    And I don't know what I should do
    You said "You can hardly see you
    Won't get far"
    So I let the dog drive the car
    And hoped that I'd make it
    Through...
    And I did but I might be...


    Goin' away for a while
    Goin' away for a while
    They might be shipping' me away to Deadman's Isle
    And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
    I'll be goin' away for a while

    I've practiced stuff and stumbling around
    But that night I really knocked you down
    And know I don't know what to do
    And now that dog went off
    But I can't blame him
    Gotta get done
    Under this mess I'm in I won't be comin' home to soon

    And I might be goin' away for a while
    I might be goin' away for a while
    They might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
    And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
    I'll be goin' away for a while

    I never should've let that dog drive
    I never should've let him in
    I never should've drunk that last ride
    I never should've drunk that???
    And now I've got one more night stuck inside of a police station
    And I don't think I'll see that dog again

    I've got one more night
    I'm seein' stars
    Slip on my stripes behind the bars
    I guess they found out where I've been

    And now I'm goin' away for a while
    And now I'm goin' away for a while
    I guess they're shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
    Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
    I hope they never televise this one last night with crooked eyes
    Let's light this city up tonight

    Cos I'm goin' away
    I'm goin' away
    I'm goin' away for a while
