Pretty Babies

got me hanging on a string, honey

got me hanging for dear life

mama told me not to be so bold

and I've been heavy crossed

I fell head first into the fire

what a foolish thing to do

gambled every bit of sense I had

and I losted it all to you

all to you

you take my breath

my last request

is that you will always love me the best

so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get

Still I'm hanging on a string, honey

Still I'm hanging on a string

oohh

ooh la la la

oooh

ooh la la la

out on the streets the bells are ringing

I said I'm sorry, lonesome June

I watched the faces as they pass me by

I'm hoping that I see you

I called your phone, it's disconnected

it has somehow no longer stems

guess the evil came and took you back

and my life is in his hands

all to you

you take my breath

my last request

is that you will always love me the best

so all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I get

Still I'm hanging on a string, honey

Still I'm hanging on a string
