Skinty Fia go deo
2023
[Verse 1] My friend Sally says she knows ya Got a funny point of view Says you've got away with murder Maybe one time, maybe two Something happens in the morning When I can't see those failing eyes I can't find a good word for ya Does it come as a surprise? [Chorus] I don't think we rhyme I will wear you down in time I will hurt you, I'll desert you I am Jackie down the line [Verse 2] Said did Sally 'bout a future Before you bored of her as well If all you want is entertainment If you can't have it you make hell [Pre-Chorus] Don't make no odds for ye To bе told, yeah Don't make no odds for ye To bе told, yeah [Chorus] I don't think we rhyme I will wear you down in time I will hurt you, I'll desert you I am Jackie down the line I don't think we rhyme I will make your secrets mine I will hate ye, I'll debase ye I am Jackie down the line Do-do-do La-la-la [Verse 3] So come on down to Sally's boneyard See her spirit in decline See the handsome mourners crying They hawked a beating heart for a sturdy spine, yeah What good is happiness to me If I've to wield it carefully? For care I'll always come up short It's only right [Chorus] I don't think we rhyme I will wear you down in time I will hurt ye, I'll desert ye I'm one Jackeen of a line I don’t think we rhyme I will take up all your time I will chew ye, I'll go through ye I am Jackie down the line I don't think we rhyme I will make your secrets mine I will hate ye, I'll debase ye I am Jackie down the line And I will stone ye, I'll alone ye I am Jackie down the line If I can make you, I can break you I am Jackie down the line I am Jackie down the line [Outro] Do-do-do (Sha-la-la) La-la-la-la-la (Sha-la-la) Yeah, do-do-do (Sha-la-la) La-la-la-la-la (Sha-la-la) Yeah, do-do-do (Sha-la-la) La-la-la-la-la (Sha-la-la) Oh, do-do-do (Sha-la-la) La-la-la-la-la (Sha-la-la) Yeah, do-do-do (Sha-la-la) La-la-la-la-la (Sha-la-la)
