Victims – Alex Williams (Country) Lyrics
Go out and get it while the getting's good
While the blood's still runnin' warm
Poor Saint Mary got lost in the woods
And now there's circles in the corn
It's time to save a little space to shed
All the old threads that you've outworn
And the last of everything you've hoped to patch up
You still don't know what for
Hot off the press, you were built for success
It was only just a matter of time
Now you live in a cell on the highway
And they're still feedin' you the same damn lines
But you ain't gonna die a victim
No, you ain't gonna die a victim
No, you ain't gonna die a victim
Of somebody else's crimes
Go out and take it like you think you should
Shake me out of these secondhand shoes
I'll give you twenty percent of the eighty I spent
A healthy dose of the homespun blues
So tell me, what's an honest man to do
With the little that he has to control?
As he suffers in silence, waves a white flag
From way down deep in a hole
Hot off the press, I wasn't born like the rest
Had the full moon in my eyes
I've been makin' the rounds, I'm still wonderin' how
To sell the truth when you're tellin' a lie
But I ain't gonna die a victim
No, I don't wanna die a victim
No, I ain't gonna die a victim
On nobody else's dime
Go out and get it while the getting's old
While the blood's still runnin' warm
Go conjure up another bright idea
For one more perfect storm
Hot off the press, you were built for success
It was only just a matter of time
And I've been far from the best, but I won't settle for less
Than a life that's always been mine
No, I ain't gonna die a victim
No, I don't wanna die a victim
No, I ain't gonna die a victim
Of somebody else's crimes
