"Never Tie Me Down" lyrics

Never Tie Me Down

I got a load of bad stuff
Laying heavy on my mind
I got a smile that sometimes
Gets so hard to find
I got trouble
Chasing me every day
Too scared to look out
See what the bad signs say

Well, you can beat up on my busted soul
Leave it bleeding on the ground
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down
I say, oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down

I got the devil
He keeps following me around
He keeps coming
Chasing me from town to town
I got a two ton bag of lead
Slamming down on me
Oh, baby, peace and love
Ain't never gonna get to me

Well, you can beat up on my busted soul
Well, leave it bleeding on the ground
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down

You better look out
Cause I'm always gonna be around
I'll tell you why
I'll tell you why

Oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down
Oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down

You can beat my soul
Leave it bleeding on the ground
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down

Oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down
I say, oh, Lord
You ain't never gonna tie me down
Yeah, yeah

Oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down
Oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down
Oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down
Oh, Lord
You never gonna tie me down
