Lyrics Beth Hart – Monkey Back

Oh God save me for I am wicked and damned
Oh God show me a better way to the Promised Land

Cause I
I can’t take it no

Gimme my money back
Slip through your crack
Gimme my money back
Sit back

Oh God know me I’m just dirty footprints at your door
Oh God hold me from one more trip and liquor store

Cause I
I can’t take it no
I can’t shake it no
I can’t break it no
Don’t wanna eat it no more
I cannot hide it
I’m uninvited
I can’t fake it no
I can’t shake it
I can’t take it

Gimme my money back
Slip through your crack
Gimme my money back
Sit back
Gimme my money back
Slip through your crack and get back

I’m not praying for a miracle
Just a little peace of mind
And if what I do is all in vain
As I’m screaming going insane
Still I am not my name

God wouldn’t save me
So now it’s just me and my rotten friends
The drugs ain’t working
No they’re just jacking me off again
