Bad Things

I was standing by the river watching my bridge burn down I was standing by the river watching my bridge burn down Cause I done a bad thing and I'm paying it for all right now Oh I've done a bad thing and I'm paying it for all right now Hey there doctor, tell me what do you see? Cause I got a bad disease and need of your remedy And I've been aching from my head to my toes I've been aching so much that I just don't ache no more But there is a one thing that I need you to see And you ain't never met a man sick as me Hey mister bartender You see my tremblin' hands You know I need a drink and I need it so bad Cause I don't know...Lordy what I just done But you got me burning like a foxchild rebel under the sun And now I'm shaking from all my misery Cause you ain't never met a man as wrong as me And no, no, no, I dont lie Cause I was taken over by the devil last night And I know, know, know, when he come around I've done a bad thing and I'm paying for it all right now Hey mister Judge, you gonna lock me up Cause I've been thinking things that I should not thinkin' of Go and hide all your brothers, go and hide the knife (night?) You got me creepin' though the dark in the middle of the lonely night You'd better lock your door, n' throw away the key Cause you ain't never met a man as guilty as me And I no, no, no, I don't lie Cause I was taken over by the devil last night And I know, know, know, when he come around And I've done bad a thing and I'm paying for it right now And I no, no, no, I don't lie Cause I was taken over by the devil last night And I know, know, know, when he come around Well I've done a bad thing and I'm paying for it all right now
