Say It Ain’t So Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh yeah
Alright
[Verse 1]
Somebody's Heine' is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
[Interlude]
Oh yeah, alright
Feels good inside
[Verse 2]
Flip on the telly, wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Verse 3]
Ow, ow, ow
I can't confront you
I never could do that which might hurt you
So try and be cool when I say
"This way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day"
So be cool
Oh yeah
Alright
[Verse 1]
Somebody's Heine' is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
[Interlude]
Oh yeah, alright
Feels good inside
[Verse 2]
Flip on the telly, wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Verse 3]
Ow, ow, ow
I can't confront you
I never could do that which might hurt you
So try and be cool when I say
"This way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day"
So be cool
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
My love is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Bridge]
Dear Daddy, I write you in spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus
Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
Say it ain't so
My love is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Bridge]
Dear Daddy, I write you in spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus
Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
