Greg Davis - Road to Ruin (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

My father was a carpenter
My mother was a secretary
They raised me up to be like them
Find me a girl, settle and marry
In all these years I ain't found one
A wife or kids, I ain't got none
I think about the harm I've done
And I know all I had is gone
I knew God damn well what I was doing
Going down the road to ruin

I fooled around, I played with fire
My altitude kept getting higher
I wandered through an endless storm
I could not keep my poor body warm
Someday I'll go to that dark place
Where sinners pay for their mistakes
Around and round the world has turned
I played with fire and I got burned
I knew God damn well what I was doing
Going down the road to ruin
