The Ransom

I'll pay the rent You pay the ransom if you can By accident We're down We're down to our last cent The money ain't coming in like i hoped And all this smoke Is like a hammer in my throat It's only rock and roll With a sold out show Darlin' please Can we go home Quiet down in front Gotta get through this before i burn out Hey mister don't you run this town I can't hold my tongue So bring the curtain down The money ain't coming in like i hoped Motor court hotels Are gonna confiscate my soul It's gonna hurt like hell When the story's too sad to be told Darlin' please Can we go home The money ain't coming in like i hoped We're a day too late About a dollar too short I'm run down drained Can't give it no more Darlin' please Can we go home
