"Low Down And Dirty" lyrics

"Low Down And Dirty"

She went into the graveyard with trouble on her mind
She was lookin' for the man who make her crazy
From her big brown coat she puller a silver knife
As she held it in her hand, her heart was racing

You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
If I stay I'll never find my way back home

Its been nine long years since you took my hand
I'll never understand what made you do it
And how you twisted up my soul, through me in a hole
I didn't come this far to see you through it

You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
If I stay I'll never find my way back home

Babe, I'm sorry for you, but it's what I have to do
You died that night beneath the leaves have fallen
And the devil will stand by; smilin' bright, his pitchfork high

A ghost from all these graves will come a callin'

You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
If I stay I'll never find my way back home

So she stabbed him in the heart
Her shinning blade it ripped apart
His skin and pierced thought the center
And I lay my body down, through me on the ground
And cover me so I can hide from my dominator

You're low down and dirty
So low down

You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
You're low down and dirty, and I love the way you do
If I stay I'll never find my way back home
