Warren Zeiders - Pretty Little Poison Lyrics
Pretty Little Poison
Every night 'round about this time
It's like she knows I'm lonely
Rolls up when the wine is gone
Like a record on repeat
Leaning on old memories
And talking 'bout what we used to be
She'll probably be the death of me
But damn if it ain't sweet
She's my pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
Shadows dancin' down the hall
Whispers that she wants me
Try my best not to fall
When she falls into me
We all need some kind of fix
For me she's the one I pick
Nothin' else will do the trick
She's all I need
She's my pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
For some, I guess it's alcohol
I don't want none at all
I just want you
No, I just want you
My pretty little poison
My heartache in the night
With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide
Yeah, she came with a warning
But I didn't mind
I'll go out on that high every time
She's my pretty little poison
My pretty little poison
She's my pretty little poison

Some Whiskey
Some whiskey on ice sounds pretty damn good again tonight
Some Tennessee or Kentucky's gonna set me right again tonight
And goodbye hurts
Some whiskey works
When I'm drinking alone
Some whiskey don't
Some whiskey's good in a shot
Some you sip on the rocks
Some you raise up and drink
Some burn up every memory
I've been drunker than hell
Tried every one on the shelf
From every shelf in this town
But I ain't found one that brings you back
Jim Beam didn't turn your high beams back around
And that Black Label Jack didn't hold you from rolling outta this town
You're driving away
Driving me insane
Whiskey and tears
Pour like rain
Some whiskey's good in a shot
Some you sip on the rocks
Some you raise up and drink
Some burn up every memory
I've been drunker than hell
Tried every one on the shelf
From every shelf in this town
But I ain't found one that brings you back
Brings you back, brings you back
No, I ain't found one
Some whiskey's good in a shot
Some you sip on the rocks
Some you raise up and drink
Some burn up every memory
I've been drunker than hell
Tried every one on the shelf
From every shelf in this town
But I ain't found one that brings you back
Brings you back, brings you back
Brings you back

Loves A Leavin
Girl, I really hate to make your pretty green eyes turn blue
You wear my heart on your sleeve just like them tattoos
And I remember the way that it was before that sun set down on us
So how can I be high when I feel so damn low?
Tried my bible, some bourbon and that red dashboard glow
Found my way to that deep end, last breath ain't breathin'
Man, I should have seen it since our love's a leavin' (our love's a leavin')
Our love's a leavin'
Girl, I know you know there's no good way to say goodbye
Tryna make this work's like trying to make our stars align
I remember the way that it was 'fore our dirt road done turned into dust
So how can I be high when I feel so damn low?
Tried my bible, some bourbon and that red dashboard glow
Found my way to that deep end, last breath ain't breathin'
Man, I should have seen it since our love's a leavin' (our love's a leavin')
Our love's a leavin'
On that fast track, it may never come back
Our love's a leavin', our love's a leavin'
How can I be high when I feel so damn low?
Tried my bible, some bourbon and that red dashboard glow
Found my way to that deep end, last breath ain't breathin'
Man, I should have seen it since our love's a leavin' (our love's a leavin')
Our love's a leavin'
Our love's a leavin' (our love's a leavin'), our love's a leavin'
I guess our love's a leavin'

Tell Me Like It Is
Maybe once upon a cowboy
You cried and watched him ride away
Well, that may be but that ain't me
'Cause honey, this one's here to stay
So say what you need to say
Tell me like it is
'Cause girl, I wanna know
The secrets that you keep
The fears you bury deep
The tears you never show
Even if it hurts
It can't be worse than this
I ain't gonna judge you
I just wanna love you
Tell me like it is
Maybe once you had an outlaw
Who called a target on your heart
But I think you'd like to trust me
Just don't know where to start
Well honey, it ain't that hard
Tell me like it is
'Cause girl, I wanna know
The secrets that you keep
The fears you bury deep
The tears you never show
Even if it hurts
It can't be worse than this
I ain't gonna judge you
I just wanna love you
Tell me like it is
Tell me like it is
Tell me like it is
'Cause girl, I wanna know
The secrets that you keep
The fears you bury deep
The tears you never show
Even if it hurts
It can't be worse than this
I ain't gonna judge you
I just wanna love you
Tell me like it is
Tell me like it is

Black and Blue
I knew it was physical
But I didn't think it'd feel like this
Ain't no medicine for miserable
This a goodbye I just can't fix
She gone like a tumbleweed in the wind
Can't move on in the heartache shape I'm in
I'd rather be on the losin' side of a parkin' lot fight
Left hook, lights go out
Be bucked off a bronc, kicked up and stomped
Face down on the ground
I'd rather be broken and bruised
Rather be black and blue
'Cause there ain't nothin' like the hurt I got from you
Blindsided by memories
Drownin' in the thought of you
And even if I could dream
A nightmare's what it'd turn into
This kinda pain ain't the one that I'd choose
I'd rather be on the losin' side of a parkin' lot fight
Left hook, lights go out
Be bucked off a bronc, kicked up and stomped
Face down on the ground
I'd rather be broken and bruised
Rather be black and blue
'Cause there ain't nothin' like the hurt I got from you
You-ooh, you-ooh
I'd rather be on the losin' side of a parkin' lot fight
Left hook, lights go out
Be bucked off a bronc, kicked up and stomped
Face down on the ground
I'd rather be broken and bruised
Rather be black and blue
'Cause there ain't nothin' like the hurt I got from you
You-ooh, you-ooh
The hurt I got, the hurt I got from you
I'd rather be broken and bruised
Rather be black and blue
'Cause there ain't nothin' like the hurt I got from you

Weeping Willow
To her mama and her daddy, she's the best thing ever made
To the boys 'round here, she's the one that got away
To the bird on the barbwire, that girl looks like spring
To a guy like me, she looks like everything
That girl can take a gray sky and paint it blue
She can put the smooth in the 90 proof
She can hang the moon in a sundress
Even put a sinner on a front pew
She can make a shining diamond out of West Virginia coal
She can put a smile on a weeping willow
There's something in the way that that girl moves
It's like a spotlight follows her through a crowded room
She showed up like rain on a desert rose
And where I'd be without her, God only knows
That girl can take a gray sky and paint it blue
She can put the smooth in the 90 proof
She can hang the moon in a sundress
Even put a sinner on a front pew
She can make a shining diamond out of West Virginia coal
She can put a smile on a weeping willow
That girl can take a gray sky and paint it blue
She can put the smooth in the 90 proof
She can hang the moon in a sundress
Even put a sinner on a front pew
She can make a shining diamond out of West Virginia coal
She can put a smile on a weeping willow
She can put a smile on a weeping willow, weeping willow

Pain Killer
Baby, my stars have all burned out
And I'm the bad your mother warned you about
Before you take my hand, you better understand
You're dancing with a broken man
My heart's in a thousand pieces
Ain't found no cure for the pain
Right now honey, all I need is
Somebody to take it away, take it away
You can be my pain killer
Baby, be my pain killer
You've got that same kinda look in your eyes
Making me wonder if it's your place or mine
Let's get out of here, blame it on our tears
Watch our devils disappear
My heart's in a thousand pieces
Ain't found no cure for the pain
Right now honey, all I need is
Somebody to take it away, take it away
You can be my pain killer
Baby, be my pain killer
Take it (take it), take it (take it)
Just take it away
Take it (take it), take it (take it)
Baby, take it away
You can be my pain killer
Baby, be my pain killer
You can be my pain killer

Inside Your Head
I wanna know what's going on inside your head
When you hold me in your arms and you're looking in my eyes
I wanna know what's going on inside your bed
When you know I'm not around, you're living out your lies
I should leave you, I know
I should hate you but I don't
I wanna know what's going on inside your head
Are you thinking about him, when your clothes are on my floor?
I desperately want to believe the words you've said
And knowing that I can't, makes me want you that much more
I should leave you, I know
I should hate you but I don't
I wanna know what's going on inside your head
When you hold me in your arms and you're looking in my eyes
I should leave you, I know
I should hate you but I don't
I wanna know what's going on inside your head
When you hold me in your arms and you're looking in my eyes

Coming Down High
Here I go again, tossin' in bed
Girl, you got my heart in over my head
Every time you leave, perfume on my sheets
'Minds me that you ain't here next to me
Ain't sleepin' anytime soon
Just thinkin' 'bout what we do
Keep me up all night
Lookin' in your eyes
It's a hell of a ride
Coming down high
When it comes to you, nothin' I can do
Couldn't quit you even if I wanted to
Baby, that goodbye kiss
Still taste it on my lips
Keep me up all night
Lookin' in your eyes
It's a hell of a ride
Coming down high
It's like runnin' on top of a runaway train
Chasin' down the tail of'a hurricane
Standin' in a fire goin' up in flames
Holdin' on for dear life
Coming down high
Coming down high
Keep me up all night
Lookin' in your eyes
It's a hell of a ride
Coming down high
Coming down, coming down
Coming down high
Coming down high

God Only Knows
Ain't no tellin' what's around the bend
We're all just guessin' how it's gonna end
And couldn't see it comin'
It wasn't in the cards
That gypsy woman done stole my heart
God only knows which way I'm headin'
Only knows how far I'll ride
From the gates of hell to Heaven
God only knows if I'll survive
When you live life bettin' you gotta roll the dice
Some days are sevens
And others are snake eyes, snake eyes
Dancin' in the shadows
Trying to pull my soul astray
Is an angel at the gallows
Will I live to die another day?
God only knows which way I'm headin'
Only knows how far I'll ride
From the gates of hell to Heaven
God only knows if I'll survive
God only knows which way I'm headin'
Only knows how far I'll ride
From the gates of hell to Heaven
God only knows if I'm alive
God only knows which way I'm headin'
Only knows how far I'll ride
From the gates of hell to Heaven
God only knows if I'll survive
If I'll survive

Drive You Crazy
Get in, baby, let's go for a ride
I'm always gonna want you by my side
I'm a mess for miles
And a stone's throw from perfect
If you stick with me, I swear I'll make it worth it
As much as I will drive you crazy
I'll love you just the same
As much as I can be your blue sky
I can come down like the rain
I swear I'll make you happy
As much as I'll make you insane
Hold on to the wheel, hang tight to the reins
As much as I will drive you crazy
If we have a boy, girl, I guarantee
Money says he'll wind up just like me
What goes around comes around
Let's pray he's like his mama
If he's mine, I guess I'll have to call him Karma
As much as I will drive you crazy
I'll love you just the same
As much as I can be your blue sky
I can come down like the rain
I swear I'll make you happy
As much as I'll make you insane
Hold on to the wheel, hang tight to the reins
As much as I will drive you crazy
'Til the gas runs out and the radio's gone
'Til these wild west wagon wheels come off
'Til we ain't nothing but dust down a paved two-lane
As much as I will drive you crazy
I'll love you just the same
As much as I can be your blue sky
I can come down like the rain
I swear I'll make you happy
As much as I'll make you insane
Hold on to the wheel, hang tight to the reins
As much as I will drive you crazy
As much as I will drive you crazy

West Texas Weather
I can feel her comin' from a hundred miles away
Like a freight train
Draggin' me down memory lane
She comes strollin' in
And rollin' through my home town like a dust cloud
That's here as fast as it blows away
Maybe someday I'll get her to stay
She's as wild as West Texas weather
I can't pin her down, hold her back
Gotta pray for God to bring her back
I'll wait here forever
Maybe one day we'll be together
She's as wild as West Texas weather
She can make a Midland grey sky fade away into a sunny day
She comes and goes like the rain
That's one thing that won't ever change
She's as wild as West Texas weather
I can't pin her down, hold her back
Gotta pray for God to bring her back
I'll wait here forever
Maybe one day we'll be together
She's as wild as West Texas weather
She's as wild as West Texas weather
I can't pin her down, hold her back
Gotta pray for God to bring her back
I'll wait here forever
Maybe one day we'll be together
She's as wild as West Texas weather
West Texas weather

Pittsburgh Steel
She told me she loved you
She said, you feel like home
Didn't know what to say
Just watched her taillights fade to gone
She said this dirt-road town ain't big enough for her
She's headed to straight to you
So go on, Pittsburgh, go on, Pittsburgh
Steal my girl, wreck my heart
Mess me up, hit me hard
Gonna get back up
We both know the deal
You can't break what's strong
As Pittsburgh steel
Tonight, you're all lit up
You're the new and shiny thing
She don't know her way around you
Like she does me
She might sip your coffee
She might wear your shirt
You don't love her like I do
But go on, Pittsburgh, go on, Pittsburgh
Steal my girl, wreck my heart
Mess me up, hit me hard
Gonna get back up
We both know the deal
You can't break what's strong
As Pittsburgh steel
Pittsburgh steel
Steal my girl, wreck my heart
Mess me up, hit me hard
I'm gonna get back up
We both know the deal
You can't break what's strong
As Pittsburgh steel
You can't break what's strong
As Pittsburgh steel

Cowboys Ride Away
This house don't feel like home no more
Even the key don't trust the door
Nothing but silence haunts the halls
It's been a lonesome, lonely night
Lost the days, track of time
No kinda drink will get it done
'Cause like a bullet from a gun
A buck-wild mustang on the run
She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed out of town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away
Guess them old westerns got it wrong
They had me fooled all along
Just like she fooled me with her love
And said forever was for us
And man, I like to think it almost was
She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed out of town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away
She was gone just like that
With the wind at her back
Saying something 'bout a sunset she needed to chase
Her heart can't be held down
Caught a tumbleweed out of town
Never shed a tear and never pulled back on the reins
And here I am, the one that stayed
And they say cowboys ride away
