Take a Life

Well if you ever leave me for another guy
I swear I just won't sit down and cry
I may take a life, maybe yours or his
One thing's for sure it won't be mine

I'll take a life
I'll take a life
If you do me wrong
I'll take a life

Well they can throw me in jail and do as they please
'Cos you know that I always say what I mean
Maybe it's right or maybe it's wrong
Don't double cross me or you will see

I'll take a life
I'll take a life
If you do me wrong
I'll take a life

'Well there's so many ways to make somebody dead
Like a knife in the back or a bullet in the head
I'll cut your throat if that's what you need
Or I'll slash your wrists and you can
Watch yourself bleed !

Oh you don't wanna be D-E-A-D dead !

I'll take a life
I'll take a life
If you do me wrong
I'll take a life
