Tried To Tell Ya

(album: The Devil Don't Sleep - 2017)

It's four in the morning, dirt road
Georgia blue lights in the rear view
Your blue eyes wide open like,
"Boy, what you trying to do?"

I think that left turn lost 'em
And it's turning you on.
You're climbing over the console
So, I'm guessing it's on

All right, all right.
You're loving this fast-lane life.
Don't lie, don't lie.
You don't wanna say goodnight.

I tried to tell ya I was crazy.
Tried to tell ya that I lost my mind.
Tried to tell ya I was nothing but trouble, oh, babe.
Yeah, but, baby, you thought I was a liar.

Now you got yourself a situation
An angel falling for a renegade.
You can't blame me.
If you try, you'll never change me, yeah
I tried to tell ya I was crazy.

Middle of the night, I'm outside in your drive way
Baby, let's go.
Didn't call or nothing, just showed up and told you, "It's time to roll."
Got you head over heels, girl,
Ain't this a trip?
Just ride or die for real
You're loving this bad-boy shit.

I tried to tell ya I was crazy.
Tried to tell ya that I lost my mind.
Tried to tell ya I was nothing but trouble, oh, babe.
Yeah, but, baby, you thought I was a liar.

Now you got yourself a situation
An angel falling for a renegade.
You can't blame me.
If you try, you'll never save me, yeah
I tried to tell ya I was crazy.

All right, all right.
You're loving this fast-lane life.
Don't lie, don't lie.
You don't wanna say goodnight.

All right, all right.
And I think I want this right?
For life, for life.
And I'll never say goodbye.

I tried to tell ya I was crazy.
Tried to tell you I was outta my mind.
Tried to tell you I was nothing but trouble, baby.
Yeah, but, baby, you saved my life.

Now we got ourselves a situation.
An angel running with a renegade.
You can't blame me.
She never tried to change me
Knowing damn well that I was crazy
