Cold Eye Lyrics - Singles - Walkabouts

painted so many towns 

painted them up and down 

down to the broken ground 

pointed the last one, for now 

soon I will stow away 

into the cool nightshade 

watching fireworks fly 

in the reservation sky 

found only hell to pay 

draggin' these bones all day 

sun-up to cocktail time 

dragged 'em till I was blind 

the field full of also-rans 

stealin' my used up plans 

all of my friends were there 

They couldn't believe I cared 

when I put my cold eye to it X2 

and I couldn't say no 

luck is the thing I make 

luck is the thing you break 

after it all went wrong 

before I was good as gone 

deep in the beggin' bowl 

I found some scraps to take 

drank from your poison jar 

found I was wide awake 

when I, put my cold eye to it X2 

and I never said no, no I 

never said no 

when I, put my cold eye to it X2 

Yes, I put my cold eye to it 

and I never said no, no I 

never said no
