Shell of a Man Songtext

Shell of a Man Songtext
Don′t knock against me
You'll find out I′m empty
You'll find out I'm a shell of a man
Got nothing to lose but a broken heart
Feel free to take it with you
Cause it′s tearing me apart
Faith was never with me
I found it all out early
I found it in the palm of my hand
The old lady said I had a few years left
But I just kept runnin′
Didn't give the girls my best
Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I′ll always say goodnight
Don't knock against me
You′ll find out I'm empty
You′ll find out I'm a shell of a man
Got seven angels singin' from a mountain on high
Hallelujah to the man with the short lifeline
Thought jesus never loved me
With a knife hangin′ bove me
I′m inclined to stand on bended knee
I got one hand in my pocket so the world won't see
Where the old lady said they gonna bury me
Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I′ll always say goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I'll always say goodnight
Don′t knock against me
You'll find out I′m empty
You'll find out I'm a shell of a man.
You'll find out I′m empty
You'll find out I'm a shell of a man
Got nothing to lose but a broken heart
Feel free to take it with you
Cause it′s tearing me apart
Faith was never with me
I found it all out early
I found it in the palm of my hand
The old lady said I had a few years left
But I just kept runnin′
Didn't give the girls my best
Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I′ll always say goodnight
Don't knock against me
You′ll find out I'm empty
You′ll find out I'm a shell of a man
Got seven angels singin' from a mountain on high
Hallelujah to the man with the short lifeline
Thought jesus never loved me
With a knife hangin′ bove me
I′m inclined to stand on bended knee
I got one hand in my pocket so the world won't see
Where the old lady said they gonna bury me
Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I′ll always say goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I'll always say goodnight
Don′t knock against me
You'll find out I′m empty
You'll find out I'm a shell of a man.
