The Walkabouts - Forgiveness Song Lyrics
Bang out the night songOn an old kettle drumDon't ask for no ransomAin't payin' you noneGround to a haltWith suspicion for allYou say "watch me fly"I suppose that you're goneBut I don't care to lookDon't give me the truthGive me shacklesBang out the night songFrom deep in my chestAre you listening?But last night (Oh last night)Late last night (late last night)Last night, you were forgivenessAnd last night (Oh last night)Late last night (late last night)Last night you were the endWalked to the dawnAlong rnisery's mileStopped under a streetlightAnd burned off my smileTrust was your mirrorAnd trust was your foolAre you listenin'And now that I'm goneGive the tears to your friendsI'll take what I'm dueThen I’ll strangleBang out the night songYou can beat it to deathYou can watch me flyBut last night (Oh last night)Late last night (late last night)Last night, you were forgivenessAnd last night (Oh last night)Late last night (late last night)Last night you were the endRaisin' my spiritsMy head on the floorTurned around fastWalkin' back to your doorThis run of bad luckStuck like sleep in your eyesCouldn't see a thingBut last night, late last nightLast night, you were forgivenessOh last night, late last nightLast night you were the endI'm comin' back to yaNo religion to sellBang out the night songAin't stuck in this hellOh last nightLate last nightLast night you were forgivin'
