blind faith - Poison

In a smoky room
Could have been a devil's tomb
90 miles east of LA
Feeling desperate and cold
Barely 19 years old
Searching for the light in the pouring rain
I visualize the cold reality
If I don't try, the answer dies inside of me
Chorus:
Blind faith takes me to the mountains
Blind faith lead me to the sea
Blind faith takes me to a higher ground
Come on, come on, come on, and help me find my way
In a small town school
Caught between the liars and fools
She spent her days thinking about her life
She was full of dreams and doubts
searching for that one way out
Didn't want to spend the rest of her days being a small town wife
She could visualize the life she wants to lead
But deep inside, she didn't have the heart it takes to leave
Chorus
I just got to get myself out of here
We visualize the life we want to lead
But deep inside got to find a reason to believe
Chorus out

Bastard Son of a Thousand Blues
Well it's four o'clock in the morning
and I'm knocking on your door
She says she's tired of me
Don't want me here no more
She said stop your pissin' and moanin' and groanin'
go sleep outside with them dogs
Now honey let me please explain
cause I didn't mean you no wrong
I didn't mean to hurt you baby
Wouldn't do that to you
She said bite your lip, now, sweet child
You're the bastard son of a thousand blues
Well my Daddy was gone by the day I was born
And my Mama I have never seen
I was born in the back of a black Cadillac
And raised by a Gypsy queen
And as a child I was hell gone wild
Raised in the eye of a storm
By the time I was ten I was doing time again
Cause I knew what that gun was for
Chorus:
No, no, no, I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues
No, no, no, Don't know what I'm going to do
No, no, no, I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues
No, no, no, Tell me, mama, what I'm going to do
Ladies have come and ladies have gone
But there's one I remember quite well
Years have gone past, but her memory lasts
But the story I cannot tell
Well I've lived and I've lied
And I've loved and I've tried
To put my soul to good use
Guess I'm sh!t out of luck
Cause that name, it just stuck
I'm the bastard son of a thousand blues, dig
Chorus, out
