Intro: verse 1 Praise the neon lights The store's not closed up yet Now everything's alright So get your cigarettes Interlude: verse 2 Leave me with the house Leave me with the kids Leave me to myself That's what you always did And I'm sleeping with the cowardly lion Poison in the blood Freight train in your head Someone is gonna fight Someone always ends up dead Interlude: verse 3 You threaten every day So pack your bags and run Train lines run all day No matter moon or sun And I'm sleeping with the cowardly lion Freight train in your head Poison in your blood Someone's looking for a fight Someone's looking for some love Interlude: Bridge Blame it on the ones who hold you down Blame it on the ones who let you down Smoke up your cigarettes from the corner store The cowardly lion's got one helluva roar And I'm sleeping with the cowardly lion I am sleeping with the cowardly lion Freight train in your head Poison in your blood Someone's looking for a fight Someone's looking for some love Outro (fade to end) For some love
