Gravel & Wine

Gin Wigmore Gravel & Wine Lyrics
1.Black Sheep

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I got lots of jealous lovers that all wish they had me back
Got a pistol for a mouth, my old mama gave me that
Making my own road out of gravel and some wine
And if I have to fall then it won't be in your line

Everybody's doing it so why the hell should I
Everybody's doing it so why the hell should I

I'm a bad woman to keep
Make me mad, I'm not here to please
Paint me in a corner but my colour comes back
Once you go black, you never go back
I'm a black sheep
I'm a black sheep

I wasn't born a beauty queen but I'm okay with that
Maybe radio won't mind if I sing a little flat
I wear my boots to bed, hang a cross up on the wall
To save me from a shallow grave that wants to take us all

Everybody's doing it so why the hell should I
Everybody's doing it so why the hell should I

I'm a bad woman to keep
Make me mad, I'm not here to please
Paint me in a corner but my colour comes back
Once you go black, you never go back
I'm a black sheep
I'm a black sheep
I'm a black sheep
I'm a black sheep

I got lots of jealous lovers that all wish they had me back
Got a pistol for a mouth, my old mama gave me that
Making my own road out of gravel and some wine
And if I have to fall then it won't be in your line

I'm a bad woman to keep
Make me mad, I'm not here to please
Paint me in a corner but my colour comes back
Once you go black, you never go back

Once you go black, you never go back
Once you go black, you never go back
Once you go black, you never go back
Once you go black, you never go back


2.Man Like That

I don't really wanna wake you
I just came to get my things
But the pretty lil' thing lying there beside you
Better take off my wedding ring
Hey, girl, do you really wanna do this
You don't know what you're stepping in
He's got more where that came from
You're not so special in the end


I'm messing up the place
Kicking down the door
Never wanna see his face no more

(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better wake up
(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better run
(He's gone) First thing in the morning
Faster than a bullet coming out of that gun
(Ooh, ooh) Tells you that he loves you
(Ooh, ooh) Then he take it all back
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that

Uh-oh, now he's got you
Right where he thinks you belong
Did he bite you on the neck
Right before the job was done
And does he ask about your mama
Does he sing your song when you get mad
Well, I been there, done that many times
And all the kicking and the screaming won't bring him back

I'm messing up the place
Kicking down the door
Never wanna see his face no more

(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better wake up
(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better run
(He's gone) First thing in the morning
Faster than a bullet coming out of that gun
(Ooh, ooh) Tells you that he loves you
(Ooh, ooh) Then he take it all back
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that

(Watch out, watch out) He's gonna get you
(Watch out, watch out) He's gonna get you
(Watch out, watch out) He's gonna get you
(Watch out, watch out) He's gonna get you
(Watch out, watch out) We're gonna get you

(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better wake up
(Ooh, ooh) Girl, you better run
(He's gone) First thing in the morning
Faster than a bullet coming out of that gun
(Ooh, ooh) Tells you that he loves you
(Ooh, ooh) Then he take it all back
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder
Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that

Girl, you gotta wonder 'bout a man like that


3.Poison

Huh! Ya!

Touch me only when nobody knows
I'm not your only woman
Turn me into your lonely secret ghost
Are you looking through me

When you kill me with the poison of an evil you hold
You feel so good to swallow
When you give me all the gold and diamonds you own
To keep me as a lover

You lock me away
So I can never see the light of day

Your love is my poison
And I'm drinking it down
I'm drinking it down
And your love is my poison
I'm drinking it down
And I'll drink it all down again

Huh! Ya!

Sorry, she don't give you what you need
I'm the girl who gets you moaning
You lie to her to lie with me
Another nail in my coffin

You lock me away
So I can never see the light of day

Your love is my poison
And I'm drinking it down
I'm drinking it down
Your love is my poison
I'm drinking it down
And I'll drink it all down again

Huh! Ya!

My body goes
In and out of where it's told

Huh! Ya!

Oh, your love is my poison
And I'm drinking it down
I'm drinking it down
And your love is my poison
I'm drinking it down
And I'll drink it all down again

Huh! Ya! Huh!


4.Kill Of The Night

The street's a liar
I'm gonna lure you into the dark
My cold desire
To hear the boom, boom, boom of your heart

The danger is I'm dangerous
And I might just tear you apart
Oh, ah, oh

I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
You're my kill of the night

Now you're mine
But what do I do with you, boy
I'll take your heart
To kick around as a toy

The danger is I'm dangerous
And I might just tear you apart
Oh---

I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh


This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
This is a bad town for such a pretty face
Oh---

I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
I'm gonna catch ya
I'm gonna get ya, get ya
Oh, ah, oh
I wanna taste the way that you bleed, oh
You're my kill of the night


5.Devil In Me

I got the devil's disease
I've got the jealous in me
So to the jail I plead
He put the devil in me
When he said he would leave
After he stole my heart
And broke it apart
You know that hell ends with me
I am your ticket to free
Don't let it end like this
Without my kiss

Oh, and you go
You walk out on me, baby
And leave me for another lady
I'll drink
I'll drink until you love me
And wake up always thinking of me
You are
You are the devil in me

All I wanted was you
The fairytale you sold me
A taste of what you had told me
You put the stagger in me
You wanna see if I bleed
I leave a dagger in you
Now who sings those blues

Oh, and you go
And walk out on me, baby
And leave me for another lady
I'll drink
I'll drink until you love me
And wake up always thinking of me
You left
You left me on a Monday
So now I'll bury you on Sunday
You are
You are the devil in me


Oh, and you, you go
And walk out on me, baby
And leave me for another lady
So I'll drink
I'll drink until you love me
And wake up always thinking of me
You left
You left me on a Monday
So now I'll bury you on Sunday
You are
You are the devil in me


6.If Only

Help me, I'm losing
To the ghosts in my head I am fighting
Waiting on answers
I can't win this on my own

Oh, but I bleed
For someone to believe me
And see what I see

If only, if only my head would let me free
Then would you take a chance on me
If only your story was who I wanna be
If only you would roll it all on me

Fall into me
I am golden if you let me
Hear me, I'm dying
Just to stand here on my own

Oh, but I bleed
For someone to believe me
And see what I see

If only, if only my head would let me free
Then would you take a chance on me
If only your story was who I wanna be
If only you would roll it all on me

You would roll it all on me
You would roll it all on me
You would roll it all on me
You would roll it all

If only, if only my head would let me free
Then would you take a chance on me
If only your story was who I wanna be
If only you would roll it all on me
If only you would roll it all on me
If only you would roll it all on me
If only you would roll it all on me


7.Dirty Love

You dirty love
You've taken all my money
Sold me to somebody
What's wrong with you
You dirty love
Put your gun back down
You're a bad boy now
But I want you
Dirty love

You got me good
I saw the blood in your eyes
Bang, bang, baby, leave me dead or alive
Now that wind is howling for the same old lies
I know what you're asking for
I'll give you what you want and more
Your dirty love

You dirty love
You shot me twice that night
In the cold moonlight
When my back was turned
You dirty love
I'm buried on that hill
You said love would kill
Still I want you
Dirty love

You got me good
I saw the blood in your eyes
Bang, bang, baby, leave me dead or alive
Now that wind is howling for the same old lies
I know what you're asking for
I'll give you what you want and more
Your dirty love

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, you got me good
I saw the blood in your eyes
Bang, bang, baby, leave me dead or alive
Now that wind is howling for the same old lies
I know what you're asking for
I'll give you what you want and more
I know what you're asking for
I know what you want me for
Your dirty love


8.Happy Ever After

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la


Shake my bones and rattle my grave
He's gone diggin' in the bitch again
Back tattoo of a big black snake
Don't go telling me she's just a friend

Hey, lil' mama
Who you gonna poison now
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Hey, lil' papa
Who you gonna run to now

It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running into what's in front of me
If I only knew
That happy ever after wasn't you

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Hurt me, hate me, throw me down
Fifteen years I gave you me
To lie alone in this redneck town
A better lover did I have to be

And hey, lil' mama
What you gonna break up now
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
And hey, lil' papa
Who you gonna run to now

It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running into what's in front of me
And I never knew
That happy ever after wasn't you


It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running into what's in front of me
If I only knew
That happy ever after wasn't you

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Happy ever after wasn't you
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Happy ever after wasn't you
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Happy ever after wasn't you


9.Saturday Smile

I've stolen all the stars to make a wish we can fly
Away, away up high to that old place in time
Where our pictures never fade and our hearts don't lie
Won't you stay a while and watch our world go by
I'll keep holding on to you and your Saturday smile


Has our Autumn died
Help me find you again


I think it's love
I think it's love
That gets us through
All our goodbyes
So when we die
Think of love
I'll think of love
And thoughts of you
To lay me down
I think it's love
That keeps us new


If only it could be the very first time
Kiss me like it means something inside
I don't want to leave and I'm afraid to find
Our fate die in a dream and let me know you're not mine
Lie a little longer, my Saturday smile

Has our Autumn died
Help me find you again

I think it's love
I think it's love
That gets us through
All our goodbyes
So when we die
Think of love
I'll think of love
And thoughts of you
To lay me down
I think it's love
That keeps us new


10.Sweet Hell

Sitting out here in the sun
Played my heart like 21
Spend my time all crying
Cos I just forget to laugh


Now everyone around me
Is just always trying to sell me
On the notion that you're not the one
That I deserve to have

But if you'd just clean up your act

Tell me what you mean by that

Maybe would should dance one more time
Whoa (Yeah!)

Sweet hell
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town
Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house
Lock the door
So we can bury these bones on the floor
Oh, sweet hell
I'm a little lonely, baby, where are you

Well, I got some roses at the door
But who they're from and who they're for
Might just need explaining
So go on and get to that

Well, I can't believe you act like that

Well, I can't believe I want you back

Maybe would should dance one more time
Whoa (Yeah!)

Sweet hell
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town
Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house
Lock the door
So we can bury these bones on the floor
Oh, sweet hell
I'm a little lonely, baby, where are you

Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa

Sweet hell
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town

Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house, I said now

Sweet hell
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town
Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house (I said now)
Sweet hell
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town
Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house (I said)
Sweet hell (Yeah!)
I'm a little lonely in this tore up town (I said)
Sweet hell
Won't you come and find me in this big ole house (I said)


11.Singin' My Soul

You been singin' my soul in
And I been singing for you too
Drag mercy on me, babe
Or try patience I plead

But when that sun comes
And that wind slows
I'll meet you there

I lie lonely without you
All my bitterness fed
Still I'm thinking of you, babe
Until I see you, this is all I have

So when that sun comes
And that wind slows
I'll meet you there
Oh, when that wind slows
I'll meet you there

Oh, and when that sun comes
And that wind slows
I'll meet you there
And when that wind slows
I'll meet you there
And when that wind slows
I'll meet you there
And when that wind slows
I'll meet you there
When that wind slows
I'll meet you there


12.Don't Stop

Twinkle toes I think I found a soul
To make me happily ever after
Twinkle toes I'm glad you shot your bow
Into the arms of my saviour
Can I say that I'm somebody's world
How do I live alone with nowhere to go no

I say I love you
And I'll say it more
My one and only I can't lose so

Don't stop doing what you do
Have I paid my dues just to be with you
Don't stop doing what you do
I will be your something old, new, borrowed, blue
Don't stop doing what you do
Cos that makes you my man

Gatekeeper, I am down on my knees
I need your key to free my stranger
Gatekeeper, I will knock on your door
And I don't care if you call yourself the reaper
Tick tock clock
I say bye, bye
I found a reason to be done with time
I say I love you
And I'll say it more
My one and only I can't lose so


Don't stop doing what you do
Have I paid my dues just to be with you
Don't stop doing what you do
I will be your something old, new, borrowed and blue
Don't stop doing what you do
Cos that makes you my man

Can you understand
Hmmm that baby, you're my man
I say I love you
And I'll say it more
My one and only oh I can't lose

No, don't stop being what you be
Doing what you do
Don't stop being you
No, no, no, no, no, no don't stop
No I can't no I can't lose you so

Don't stop doing what you do
Have I paid my dues just to be with you
Don't stop doing what you do
I will be your something old, new, borrowed and blue
Don't stop doing what you do ah
Don't stop doing what you do so
Don't stop doing what you do
Cos that makes you my man
