Bessie And Me Lyrics

Nighttime brings around a secret chill

I was only looking for a secret thrill

You were barking up the same old tree

There ain't nobody there but Bessie and me

Toxic waste on your mind tonight

Nobody seems to be doing you right

In a world so full of apathy

There ain't nobody here but Bessie and me

Nobody here but Bessie the cat

Well you pissed it away well imagine that

I wasn't offering sympathy

No you'll never get that from Bessie and me

Well I loved you once but it went away

You must be blind you must have gone astray

I've paid the price you won't collect the fee

There ain't nobody here but Bessie and me

Well broken hearts are a dime a pair

I always get lost when you're standing there

While I'm begging for love on my better knee

There ain't nobody here but Bessie and me

Nobody here but Bessie the cat

Well you pissed it away well imagine that

I wasn't offering sympathy

No you'll never get that from Bessie and me

You're always talking about how you feeling so lame

How you're tired of playing the white man's game

Look at yourself baby you're split in three

And there ain't nobody here but Bessie and me

I'd like to love you but my heart's on fire

I'll put it out with a funeral choir

What has to be just has to be

There ain't nobody here but Bessie and me

Nobody here but Bessie the cat

Well you pissed it away well imagine that

I wasn't offering you sympathy

No you'll never get that from Bessie and me

There's nobody here but Bessie and me

Nobody here but Bessie and me

Nobody here but Bessie and me
