Company of Thieves Lyrics by The Delta Saints

2010

[Verse 1]
And I prefer the company of thieves
Over your blue blooded kind
The junkies, the johns, and the whores
That you run from and deny
And I prefer the sound of a death
Maybe its their smile that I adore
[Chorus 1]
What I do know
Is that I want more
[Verse 2]
And I prefer the taste of good whiskey
Over your Cadillac champagne
And I prefer the dirt under my fingers
Over your necktie and fame
And I prefer the smеll of cigarette
Over your highbrow pеrfume
[Chorus 1]
But what I do know
Is that I'm done with you
[Chorus 2]
Baby you better run from me
Better, better run from me
Better run from here
Better run, better run yeah
Baby you better run from me
Better, better run from me
Better run from here
Better run, better run
[Verse 3]
I believe that your father's name don't carry weight
As my daddy was a man just the same
And I believe in the still of your silence
All you wanna do is scream my name
And I believe every man's got the devil in him
But baby, yours is walking right by your side
But all I gotta say to you, baby
Is that you gotta run and hide
Baby you better run from me
Better run from here
Better run, better run yeah
Baby better run from me
Better run from here
Better run, better run
Better run, better run
Better run, better run
Better run, better run
Better run, better run
Better run, better run
