nick cave and the bad seeds - long time man lyrics
written by tim rose
yeah, they came to take me away
said i’d be sitting here for the rest of my life
but i don’t really care – i shot my wife
and brother, i can’t even remember the reason why
oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
well i ain’t had no love since i don’t know when
it sure makes a long time man feel bad
we was down in jacksonville
a cold winter night
my baby and i, we began to fight
i heated up, and i grabbed my gun
i get so cold on those nights down south
she was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor
she looked up at me and began to smile
her gasping words: “baby, i love you”
then she closed those baby blue eyes
(chorus, and variations)
sometimes i hear you call my name in the dead of the night
i ain’t had those arms around me
i ain’t had those lips, those lips, around me
it sure makes a long time man feel bad
so bad
