[Chorus:] Take a look at my life, all black Take a look at my clothes, all black Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like The Rolling Stones wanna paint it black Like the night that we met, all black Like the colour of your dress, all black Like the seats in my Cadillac I used to see red, now it's just all black
As long as I could remember I dreamed in black and white As I grew up and the sun went down, I never felt more alright My mother she use to tell me: Son you better get to church It's a dark, dark world and it's evil out there and you know it's only getting worse Yeah, never been much for weddings or anniversaries but I go to a funeral if I'm invited any day of the week Some people say that I sound strange some say that I'm not right But I find beauty in this world every single night
[Chorus:] Take a look at my life, all black Take a look at my clothes, all black Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like The Rolling Stones wanna paint it black Like the night that we met, all black Like the colour of your dress, all black Like the seats in my Cadillac I used to see red, now it's just all black
I sat down at her table at the end of the night She was having black coffee and a cigarette, she wasn't wearing white She said, people tell me that I am strange they say that I am not right She said, the only time I feel alright is in the dead of night I think I found the one for me
[Chorus:] Take a look at my life, all black Take a look at my clothes, all black Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like The Rolling Stones wanna paint it black Like the night that we met, all black Like the colour of your dress, all black Like the seats in my Cadillac I used to see red, now it's just all black
I remember feeling so alive The night I look into her eyes
[Chorus:] Take a look at my life, all black Take a look at my clothes, all black Like Johnny Cash, all black
Like The Rolling Stones wanna paint it black Like the night that we met, all black Like the colour of your dress, all black Like the seats in my Cadillac I used to see red, I used to see red
Take a look at my life (all black) Take a look at my life (all black) Take a look at my life (all black) All black, all black Take a look at my life (all black) Take a look at my life (all black) Take a look at my life (all black) All black, all black, all black, all back, all black
