Straitjacket Lyrics by Bohnes

206: Act II

2018

[Verse 1]
Father forgive me, for all of my sins
If there's a heaven, I'm not gettin' in
The list is so long, don't know where to begin
The worst part of all, I'd commit 'em again

[Chorus]
You gon' have to chain me up
You gon' have to lock me down
You gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me
You gon' have to break my heart
You gon' have to steal my soul
You're gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh- oh
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me
Oh-oh

[Verse 2]
I messed around, took some angels to bed
I broke every halo but have no regrets, yeah
The devil, he crawled up inside of my head
At least I'm not perfect, I'd rather be dead, dead

[Chorus]
You gon' have to chain me up
You gon' have to lock me down
You gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me
You gon' have to break my heart
You gon' have to steal my soul
You're gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh- oh
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me
Oh-oh

[Bridge]
Heaven for the view, hell for the company
Lost a couple screws, but no need to pray for me
Heaven for the view, hell for the company
Lost a couple screws, but no need to pray for me

[Build-up]
You gon' have to chain me up
(You don't have to chain me up)
You gon' have to lock me down
(You don't have to lock me down)
You gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me

You don't have to break my heart
(You don't have to break my heart)
You don't have to steal my soul
(You don't have to steal my soul)

[Post-Chorus]
You gon' have to straitjacket me, straitjacket me (Oh-oh)
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me

Oh-oh
Straitjacket me, straitjacket me
