When I Leave This House

Just like Cain & Able

I let the devil come 'round

Now I'm the king of the garden

With a snake for a crown

When the lord points his finger

Baby I'm goin' down

Well, I'm no Hells Angel

But I like to pretend I'm the king of the highway

On the prairie wind

With a black leather soul

I'm gonna ride to the bitter end, here we go

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Tie my sins to a railroad track

Carve my initials with chicken scratch

The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Well, hey now mama

Don't let your love dry up

I'm a hungry child

With an empty cup

You can't feed your babies

When you're all shook up,

yeah

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Tie my sins to a railroad track

Carve my initials with chicken scratch

The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Well, I'm no Hells Angel

But I like to pretend I'm the king of the highway

On the prairie wind

With a black leather soul I'm gonna ride to the bitter end

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Tie my sins to a railroad track

Carve my initials with chicken scratch

The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back

Tie my sins to a railroad track

Carve my initials with chicken scratch

The Garden of Eden hasn't broken my back

When I leave this house,

I ain't coming back
