Better leave it on the shelf
Could be the old man wants it for himself
Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall
Hurt me to my bones
To see him high in the morning
And by evenin' see him gone
Boy, that woman belongs to the captain
Better let her go her way
Before the captain got somethin' to say
Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall
Hurt me to my bones
To see him high in the morning
And by evenin' see him gone
Boy, that power belongs to the devil
Better leave that power alone
Could be the devil gonna want it for his own
Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall
Hurt me to my bones
To see him high in the morning and by evenin'
See him gone
To see him high in the morning and by evenin'
See him gone
Boy, that bottle belongs to the devil Better leave it on the shelf Could be the old man wants it for himself Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall Hurt me to my bones To see him high in the morning And by evenin' see him gone Boy, that woman belongs to the captain Better let her go her way Before the captain got somethin' to say Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall Hurt me to my bones To see him high in the morning And by evenin' see him gone Boy, that power belongs to the devil Better leave that power alone Could be the devil gonna want it for his own Well, it hurts my heart to see a young man fall Hurt me to my bones To see him high in the morning and by evenin' See him gone To see him high in the morning and by evenin' See him gone Explain Request ×
