Lyrics Madeleine Peyroux

Madeleine Peyroux

Guilty

Yeah baby, I've been drinking,

And I shouldn't come by I know

But I found myself in trouble darling,

And I had nowhere else to go

Got some whiskey from a bar man,

Got some cocaine from a friend

I just had to keep on moving,

Till I was back in your arms again

Well I'm guilty, yeah I'm guilty,

I'll be guilty for the rest of my life

How come I never do,

What I'm supposed to do

How come nothing that I try to do ever turns out right

Well you know how it is with me baby,

You know I just can't stand myself

It takes a whole lot of medicine,

For me to pretend to be somebody else.
