I'm soaked through with the autumn rain I've been chasin' all my life I come here to take shelter under the neon lights With a breath of hesitation I walk in the door I got a woman livin' in my house I don't call her my wife no more
'cos She don't wish me happiness She don't want my luck to change She's a rock upon my chest When removed it leaves a stain Always thinkin' about the price of one Soon as my hand's under her dress She don't wish me happiness
I smile in disbelief How naive I can be To think that what I lack in love I can buy from thee There's a big black hole As I come And I see through your smile You just want me gone
'cos You don't wish me happiness You don't want my luck to change You're a rock upon my chest When removed it leaves a stain Always thinkin' about the price of one Soon as my hand's under your dress You don't wish me happiness
I see my tears in your eyes dear Findin' out love ain't for sale I see my sweat in your hands Now they're tied up to the rail It would be so easy To make you feel my pain It doesn't matter where I'm off to now You will never have to face me again
'cos You don't wish me happiness You don't want my luck to change You're a rock upon my chest When removed it leaves a stain Always thinkin' about the price of one Soon as my hand's under your dress You don't wish me happiness
