Song Lyrics

I messed around as a little boy
I grew up, made the blade my new toy
Friends said "boy, with what you screwin' around" I said
"Don't concern yourselves and just
Gimme another blast"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Under the hill, with just a few notches on my belt
Take it away, don't want no more
Even if you say just one more
I won't leave you alone, oh

I grew up, went into rehab
You know the doctors never did me no good
They said "son, you're gonna be a new man"
I said "thank you very much
And can I borrow fifty bucks?"
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah

Under the hill, with just a few notches on my belt
Take it away, don't want no more
Even if you say just one more
I won't leave you alone

'Cause I'm goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line straight to nowhere

Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line straight to nowhere

I messed around as a little boy
I grew up, made the blade my new toy
Friends said boy with what you fuckin' around
I said "oh my God and here we go again"
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah

Under the hill, with just a few notches on my belt
Take it away, don't want no more, no more
Even if you say just one more
I won't leave you alone

'Cause I'm goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line straight to nowhere

Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line
Goin' down the steps on a white line straight to nowhere

Follow me down
Sexual chocolate baby
