Temptation

[Verse 1] Place my missin' picture on my beer, I'm runnin' away from home Sam, I'm just a man, a rusted bucket of flesh and bone Someday, I'll seek forgiveness for the sweet smell of her breath She touched my hand and asked for a check, I put out my cigarette [Chorus] Temptation Temptation, go home, Lord I'm walkin' straight into the ocean, tell the tide I'm on my way I'm gonna hang my head down tonight on Damocles' sword [Verse 2] When the angels hung out in Eden, they saw Adam chasin' Eve They said, "Grab your boots, your coat, your hat, my boy, it's time that you leave" She asked me if I'd liked to play 'cause she knew that I was broke I cashed my chips out months ago, the smile is just mirrors and smoke [Chorus] Temptation Temptation, go home, Lord I'm walkin' straight into the ocean, tell the tide I' on my way I'm gonna hang my head down tonight on Damocles' sword [Bridge] Twist my wrist Tell me I should resist But the flesh is weak Here comes the kiss [Instrumental Break] Uh-huh Mh-hm Uh-huh [Bridge] Twist my wrist I can't go on like this Ah, the flesh is weak Here it comes, here it comes [Chorus] Temptation Temptation, go home, Lord I'm walkin' straight into the ocean, tell the tide I'm on my way I'm gonna hang my head down tonight on Damocles' sword Temptation [Guitar Solo] Uh-huh Uh-huh Uh-huh [Outro] I'm gonna hang my head down tonight on Damocles' sword
