Demon on my shoulder (lyrics)

I got a demon on my shoulder

He helped me write this song,

Been ten miles of bad road

Since he came along.

If the pavement isn’t burning

I’m dealing with the rain,

Roll down to the station   and ride the midnight train.

I been banking on

These empty promises,

You promised me

You’d be comin home.

The Budweiser beers dear

They line my fridge,

Probably just as well

I’m on my own.                 (music break)

The moon and sky

Make me realize,

The only thing to patch

These holes is time.

Oh time will tell

As I throw water down the well,

Receiving only echoes

As I yell                             (music break)

I got a demon on my shoulder

He helped me write this song,

Been ten miles of bad road

Since he came along.

If the pavement isn’t burning

I’m dealing with the rain,

Roll down to the station   and ride the midnight train.
