Lyrics

Bangin'

I'm no devil and I'm no saint

I know what to do

With a little bit here and a little bit there

I'm going to bring it on to you

I can change my ways, I can search my days

I know I payed my dues

Nothing can change what always remains

I keep bangin' on with you

I keep bangin' on with you

I keep bangin' on with you

There's nothing I can say or do

Bangin' on with you

Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa

Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa

I will break my neck I can take it all back

Erase my name for you

Life ain't fair, but nothing compares

When I'm bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

You will share this blame you will dance on my brain (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

I will swing along with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

If you're not scared when you wake the dead (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

When I'm bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

I'll keep bangin' on with you

Bangin' on with you

There's nothing I can say or do

Bangin' on with you

Hang on we'll beat this out (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out of you (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out of you (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out! (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out of you (Whoa-o)

Hang on we'll beat this out! (Whoa-o)

I'll keep bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

There's nothing I can say or do

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

There's nothing I'd rather say or do

Bangin' on with you

Hang on we'll beat this out

Hang on we'll beat this out of you

Hang on we'll beat this out

Hang on we'll beat this out of you

Hang on we'll beat this out!

Hang on we'll beat this out of you

Hang on we'll beat this out!

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

There's nothing I can say or do

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

Bangin' on with you (Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa, Oh Whoa)

There's nothing I'd rather say or do

Bangin' on with you
