Long Time Man Lyrics – Your Funeral My Trial

Lyrics: Long Time Man
Album: Your Funeral My Trial
Artist: Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds
 

Written by tim rose

Yeah, they came to take me away
Said i’d be sitting here for the rest of my life
But i don’t really care – i shot my wife
And brother, i can’t even remember the reason why

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Well i ain’t had no love since i don’t know when
It sure makes a long time man feel bad

We was down in jacksonville
A cold winter night
My baby and i, we began to fight
I heated up, and i grabbed my gun
I get so cold on those nights down south

She was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor
She looked up at me and began to smile
Her gasping words: "baby, i love you"
Then she closed those baby blue eyes

(chorus, and variations)

Sometimes i hear you call my name in the dead of the night

I ain’t had those arms around me
I ain’t had those lips, those lips, around me

It sure makes a long time man feel bad
So bad
