Someone help me I heard her scream The old man clutched her chest Said ambulance on the way stay with me And Johnny called said there's been a murder on the green
Someone help her It can't be me Standing over her with a gun in my hand I made my baby bleed It's not my fault, she shot first me
And in the blink Of an eye Another young lover dies
So they took me To a cell Threw away the key And damned me right back down to hell I said "Well I haven t been home in a while"
Now I got angels Knocking at my door Whispering sweet nothings And I scream I can't take anymore You're a coward, why don't you end it all?
And in the blink Of an eye Another young lover dies Well I'm not the only one Who's guilty of committing this crime I think this song Of a girl who met my gun A bullet in the heart Is just another problem I'm working on
[Hey Louie, take us to China Town]
And with my last breath I said "Preacher, please" To ask the undertaker if he'll partake in some bribery And steal my body and go and bury it on the green
Next to my gun Young Annie (?) Will discuss all the arguments with friends we love as enemies Oh maybe we were both trigger happy
And in the blink Of an eye Another young lover dies Well I'm not the only one Who's guilty of committing this crime I think this song Of a girl who met my gun A bullet in the heart Is just another problem I'm working on
