Well I'm a sinner and you're a saint
Baby I love your new coat of paint
I'll keep on singing
Till these blues turns to gold
I'll test the poison, I'll break the law
Write your name on a highway wall
They say the higher you go, the better you are
And the harder you'll hit when you fall
Baby I can't go running on empty
You take the red from the rose
All I've got is what you've left me
A dollar saved is a dollar lost
Look at what all these feelings cost
I'm down on a dime, I'm wasting my time
And I can't seem to find words I've lost
So ring around the rosey babe
You might think that you've got it made
But everyone knows you keep changing your clothes
There's a bill that will never get paid
Baby I can't go running on empty
You take the red from the rose
Hide that picture, man it always tempts me
