[Verse 1]
If I had some poet's wings
I would fly to New Orleans
I'd rhyme my trials and my misdeeds
So if you cut the words they would bleed
[Chorus 1]
And in the night when I'm all alone
And the sadness goes to the bone
I'd make the words in the refrain
As lethal as the knives of Spain
[Verse 2]
If I had some black cat's bones
I'd take the things down to Antone's
Then I'd steal what I really need
I'd take it home and I'd Let It Bleed
[Chorus 2]
And in the night when I'm by myself
I'd take what it was down from the shelf
When I find the words in the refrain
As lethal as the knives of Spain
[Verse 3]
If I had some grains of faith
Well I'd keep 'em where they were safe
Then I would not disbelieve
Be corrupted or deceived
If I had some poet's wings
I would fly to New Orleans
I'd rhyme my trials and my misdeeds
So if you cut the words they would bleed
[Chorus 1]
And in the night when I'm all alone
And the sadness goes to the bone
I'd make the words in the refrain
As lethal as the knives of Spain
[Verse 2]
If I had some black cat's bones
I'd take the things down to Antone's
Then I'd steal what I really need
I'd take it home and I'd Let It Bleed
[Chorus 2]
And in the night when I'm by myself
I'd take what it was down from the shelf
When I find the words in the refrain
As lethal as the knives of Spain
[Verse 3]
If I had some grains of faith
Well I'd keep 'em where they were safe
Then I would not disbelieve
Be corrupted or deceived
