about

me and my bloodshot alcohol eyes

lyrics

Under the bridge
(John the Revelator, Henk Suurling /Tom Huissen)

They told me I was crazy
Didn’t want no woman
Didn’t see no friend

Drinking all day
Drinking all night
Living in the shadow
Away from the light

Sat back down drank my beer
Hardly left the house
Ran to the late night store
Dark brown bag
Another score

Many a man has been put under the bridge
By a woman

One day she came to my door
Long brown hair
Dark blue eyes

Running vibration
From the skies
Me and my alcohol bloodshot eyes

She looked at me I looked back
Confused and upset
She gave me a smile
Feeling my luck
Blue jean style

She dragged me to the mirror
I saw a worn out man

Blood red eyes
Scars on the skin
Puffy face
Smiling grin

I stretched out on the bed
Shut off the light
Her boot hit the floor
She fell out
Another bore

Many a man has been put under the bridge
By a woman
