Dirty Little Thing Lyrics

Can't stop thinkin' must've been trippin' this evening
My mind is racing demons and all of my feelings are numb
Yeah, and when I roll with my head in the wind
And I feel like the king of the...

Dead men wishin' they had gotten together with you, girl
But you're a dirty little liar with a message of obsession to come
You got your head in the clouds
And your world's upside down

Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life

Can't stop drinking, I'm cold, kicking and bleeding
The wine is numbing feelings and all of my memories are gone
Yeah, and when I roll with my head in the wind
And I feel like the king of the...

Dead men wishin' they had gotten together with you, girl
But you're a dirty little liar with a message of obsession to come
You got your head in the clouds
And your world's upside down

Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life
You got your head in the clouds
And your world's upside down

Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life

Get away
Get away
Get away

Get away
Get away
Get away
