Like Willie John Songtext
von Mark Lanegan

There′s nothin' I can do

Where′s Willie John?
Dead so long
Born to fall
Nothin' at all

Who's gonna grieve
When you′re gone?
I once believed
I wouldn′t bleed

I seen all these good looking women
While I'm getting off the plane
Remember where my baby is
Start thinkin′ 'bout my baby

All she ever knew was trouble
And for much I was to blame
But when I heard the news that night
I went down like a satellite

And when my world stood still that night
I dropped like a satellite


She never knew how much I loved her
She never knew how much I cared
I thought I′d get back to my special one
I thought I'd get on a lucky run, ah

I said I′d get back to my special one
I said I'd get on a lucky run
God damn

Where's Willie John?
Dead so long
Born to fall
Like nothing at all

Now who′s gonna grieve
When you′re gone?
I once believed
I'd never bleed

But Lord, I′m all alone tonight
Don't the sun love its satellite?
Lord, I′m all alone tonight
Don't the sun love its satellite?
I don′t know


See, seein' all these good lookin' women
Remember where my baby is
Start thinkin′ ′bout my baby
Remember where my baby is
Start me thinkin' ′bout my baby
Where's my baby?
