Poison Lyrics

"Face The Hangman" lyrics



Friday night at midnight
Looking for what I need
I heard a tale that somewhere
That a dude had a real go at me

So like a rat race cowboy
I slipped into the human zoo
Headed down for trouble
Got myself a drink or two

Well I took to the streets
And I took to the falls
Marched right in but I didn’t get involved
Manager said hey boy there’s the door
But I didn’t leave until I evened the score

CHORUS
I gotta face the hangman
Gotta pay for what I done
I gotta face the hangman
Or by the noose I swing
In the morning sun

Like a tipsy gypsy
Looking like I’d been had
But like the story says
This wild-eyed boy is bad

I got a police squad car
Taxi to the local slammer
They said
Son you’re gonna pay for what you’ve done
I don’t give a damn

Just cause I like to drink and dance all night
Just cause I like cat brawling, an old fist fight

Give me no lip boy or I’ll kick you in the mouth
Watch you head fly open and your teeth fly out

CHORUS

Now the judge looked at me and said
That boy, he's definitely guilty
Ooooh let him swing

CHORUS
CHORUS
