Jamie T
Emily’s Heart
[Verse 1]
Bottle of wine and old 45s
Rifle in the corner that her grandfather left her when he died
Said, "No surprise, I've had to use it quite a few times
So Jay, don't you ever let us down, don't you ever
I'll have to shoot you and no one will hear a sound"

[Chorus]
Bruised and bloodied, I'm lying on the ground
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down
Now I'm dying as a message to the town
This what happens if you fuck around
And meddle if you want trouble
Trouble, then you should meddle
But don't ever meddle with Emily's heart

[Verse 2]
She said, get your coat, come on
To the dog track with a money wrap
Yeah, we had some fun, left with more 'cause we won
I was under investigation on suspicion of doing her wrong
She said, "You've become a villain, accused of a hit-and-run"
(I've become a villain, accused of a hit-and-run)
Said, it hit me first and I say it's the worst
That I ever felt in a broken heart
Said, uh, blood stains on a shirt crease
I hope she pays the dues
When I left, she said that your last breath
Will be down by the station at two
So she shot me down
[Chorus]
Bruised and bloodied, I'm lying on the ground
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down
Now I'm dying as a message to the town
This is what happens if you fuck around
So meddle if you want trouble
Trouble, then you should meddle
But don't ever meddle with Emily's heart

[Verse 3]
She said I'm a user, and she's a loser with a gun
I said, "If you choose to, it becomes hard to include anyone
So if you stay, put it away, or should I run?"
She said, "I think you know the answer to your question"
So for the smiles and all of the miles the engine's done
The further I drive away, the closer we become
So if I stay, would you put it away and forgive this one son?
She said, "Jay, I think you know the answer to your question"

[Chorus]
Bruised and bloodied, I'm lying on the ground
And I am aware that I let the poor girl down
Now I'm dying as a message to the town
This what happens if you fuck around
So meddle if you want trouble
Trouble, then you should meddle
But don't ever meddle with Emily's heart
