Lyrics for Master Hunter
I'm a master hunter I cured my skin Now, nothing gets in Nothing, not as hard as it tries You want a woman 'cause you wanna be saved Well, I'll tell you that I got a little lot on my plate You want a woman who will call your name It ain't me babe No, no, no it ain't me babe I don't stare at water anymore Water doesn't do what it did before Took me in and to the edge of insane When I only meant to swim I nearly put a bullet in my brain When the rhythm took me in I'm a master hunter You let men into your bed They not know you well They can't get into my head They don't have a hope in hell You see, the thing is we are so alone There's nothing we can share You can get me on the telephone But you want to keep me there No, no, no you won't keep me there Take me somewhere I can grow Give me something, let me go Oh, tell me something I don't know Oh, I have some news I have some news Is this what you think I do? In life when I'm not being used You're not sad, you live for the blues You're not sad, you live for the blues I have some news Wrestling the rope from darkness Is no fucking life that I would choose I'm a master hunter I cured my skin Now, nothing gets in Nothing, not as hard as it tries I'm a master I'm a master I'm a master hunter
