Won't get home at a hundred o'clock
Nobody goin' to satisfy me
Except you and the baby and the colour tv
I was always in my prime
Now I'm falling over the line
They boys are sad to have to let me go
But you got it all to get me home
'Cause you quiet me down
I been all over the place and I ain't found anyone
Can keep my feet on the ground, no
We can be bigger than my old habits
Over my dead body but still
If I am awake in the morning
We'll be royal in the afternoon
You'll be the Queen and I'll be the mad King of it all
The words of a drunk fade with the light
Satan delivers and the goods are alright
He's at home now counting the dough
I'm standing here for another last throw
We can be bigger than my old habits
Over my dead body but still
If I am awake in the morning
We'll be royal in the afternoon
I won't drink, I won't smoke Won't get home at a hundred o'clock Nobody goin' to satisfy me Except you and the baby and the colour tv I was always in my prime Now I'm falling over the line They boys are sad to have to let me go But you got it all to get me home 'Cause you quiet me down I been all over the place and I ain't found anyone Can keep my feet on the ground, no We can be bigger than my old habits Over my dead body but still If I am awake in the morning We'll be royal in the afternoon You'll be the Queen and I'll be the mad King of it all The words of a drunk fade with the light Satan delivers and the goods are alright He's at home now counting the dough I'm standing here for another last throw We can be bigger than my old habits Over my dead body but still If I am awake in the morning We'll be royal in the afternoon Explain Request ×
