Road To Ruin lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Road To Ruin lyrics Songwriters: Kirwan, Larry; The strobe was pulsin in the after-hours, the booze was flowin free When I first saw you across that room on down by Houston Street You were wrapped around a wiseguy for all the world to see Ah, you touched my heart across that room Then you came on home with me The angels knew their business, boys, they knew what they were doin With your blazin eyes and your raven hair on down the road to ruin I gave up friends and family, I gave up all I knew I followed you like Jesus Christ on down the road to ruin The dawn threw up across the sky, we kissed like boy and girl But neither of us was innocent, we d both been screwed by the world We clung onto each other for fear we d drift away Ah, you touched me to my heart s desire on the dawning of that day The angels knew their business, boys, they knew what they were doin With your blazin eyes and your raven hair on down the road to ruin I gave up friends and family, I gave up all I knew I followed you like Jesus Christ on down the road to ruin "Johnny", you said, "I m clean outta me head I can t take any more pain If life s for livin then what are we doin Ploughin these poisoned streets again and again" Jenny, I didn t know what I had in you How could I be so dumb to walk out on you? Now what am I doin , ploughin these poisoned streets again and again And again and again and again and again and again I wonder where you are tonight, I hope you re feelin fine In some saloon or after-hours, the men around you like flies I keep on searchin everywhere, I know just what I m doin Ah, you re somewhere out there right in front of me on down the road to ruin The angels knew their business, boys, they knew what they were doin With your blazin eyes and your raven hair on down the road to ruin I gave up friends and family, I gave up all I knew I followed you like Jesus Christ on down the road to ruin I followed you, you song lyrics
