Lyrics
I've been sinning
I've been livin'
I've been beaten
By Saturdays
On a diamond
I lay on a diamond
On a diamond
I lay awake
D'Artagnan
Good ol' D'Artagnan
He ain't got a thing on me
I've been minding
To my field of timing
Too bad your time in
It just never came
Well I don't know how else to say it
In a different way
But why don't you just fade away
'Cause there's a battle going on
Down south of Babylon
So why don't you just fade away
I've been dealing
I've been healing
I've been dealing
A crooked game
Thieving pirates
I'm thieving pirates
Out of gold
That they stole from the queen
Stole from a man
Whose favorite hand
Is one that he will always lend
Well I'm building us a levee
By the Mississippi
For I'll die
In an unmarked grave
Well I don't know how else to say it
In a diffrent way
But why don't you just fade away
'Cause there's a battle going on
Down south of Babylon
So why don't you just fade away
