Standing in the Line of Fire - Black Star Riders

I’ll take another shot of whiskey

On second thoughts you better make it two

I’ve got a lot on my mind today

And we’ve got a lot of drinking to do

So long live life, love and retribution

Long live life, love and revolution

Rock, paper, scissors and dynamite

When everything’s starting to feel alright

I’m better off alone than in bad company

Why can’t you take the hint?

Why can’t you let me be?

I’m losing control, I’ve got no desire

Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

Standing in the line of fire

I’m a simple man

With a complicated life

I fell in love with a switchblade

She’s a hell of a knife

Never in question, never in doubt

Don’t give up on something you can’t live without

Everyone’s got a little blood in this mess

When you win say nothing, when you lose say less

I’m better off alone than in bad company

Why can’t you take the hint?

Why can’t you let me be?

I’m losing control, I’ve got no desire

Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

So long live life, love and retribution

Long live life, love and revolution

Rock, paper, scissors and dynamite

When everything’s starting to feel alright

I’m not asking for mercy, I’m not asking for time

Sometimes I ask myself am I the last of my kind?

I’m losing control, I got no desire

Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

Standing in the line of fire

Standing in the line of fire
