Mark Lanegan
Can’t Come Down
[Verse 1]
I don't give a damn for money
Never did I give a damn for gold
Tell me, little doll
Talk some sweet nothings
A river runs deep and cold

[Bridge 1]
Don't know why, but it keeps running
Don't know why I can't come down

[Verse 2]
Moses, he stood on the mountain
Devil made it thunder and rain
Girl, I ain't afraid of temptation
No, I ain't afraid of some pain

[Verse 3]
Watch a little doll
She just come running
Running straight away
Bring it to me, I got sweet nothing
And only myself to blame
I don't know why I just keep running
Don't know why I can't come down
[Chorus 1]
Walk
Don't you walk on me
Don't you step
Don't you step on me
Don't you walk
Don't walk on me
Don't you step on me

[Verse 4]
Don't need no thing for money
Got no jones for gold
All I got today is some sweet nothing
Nothing to take away
Don't know why I just keep running
Don't know why I can't come down

[Coda]
Don't know why somebody
Nobody hears today
Don't know why
Sweet nothing
Nothing to take away
No, I ain't afraid of temptation
No, ain't afraid of some pain
No, ain't afraid of some pain
Somebody, somebody
Somebody can't come down
Somebody can't come down
Can't come down
Somebody can't come down
Can't come down
Can't come down
Don't know why I can't come down
Ain't afraid of no pain
