I don't believe a word what they say,

It's only been a short time, only 90 days,

F#m
You couldn't leave me baby, you couldn't walk,

Now I wake up in a cold, cold sweat losing my mind.

And I don't really care if your blood runs cold.

Like a cornered animal I got to cover ground.

Now I found some medicine, she takes my pain away.
