lyrics

Whatever the consequence, whatever the cost
let's chop off my branch of that family tree
Don't try to save me, I'm already lost
I stood on the side of the road and stuck out my thumb
Oh, baby, I knew you'd come

Do what you want with me and I won't care
Rattle my chain and take me anywhere
Am I running away or am I going home?
Only the devil knows

Let's not pretend this is about innocence
or hospitality or common sense
You can hold me down or drag me back to the light
Either way it serves me right

You never promised me freedom
You never promised me love

You can go straight to hell for all I care
Save me a seat, honey, I'll meet you there
By the fireside we'll be reconciled
A warm bed for the wayward child
