Well, I killed a girl in Memphis, Tenessee and I saw her cry I was watching as the spark of life disappeared from her tear-dimmed eyes
But I'm out for blood, not for love or nothing else Yeah, I'm undead, you heard what I said, yeah, nothing else It was sad to watch her die But vampires don't cry
Well, I brought my coffin to the train and took off to the very next town Kissed some lady with my lucky lips, yeah, you could say that I brought her down
Yeah, she tasted fine, but I don't mind that she's not around 'Cause I'm out to kill, not to thrill or make her lovin' heart pound It was sad to watch her die But vampires never cry
Next stop was a little blond, so lovely that I could make her mine But I don't regret that we ever met, we both had a killer time She said she felt a slight unease but I'm not out to please Come on little baby, just a little bit closer and I'll make your problems cease
Oh, it's alright in the dead of night, I'm feeling fine With the lady I love, all drained of blood, I'm feeling fine It was sad to watch her die But vampires don't cry
