Death By Rock And Roll Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Jenny died of suicide
With a candle burnin' in her eye
But on my tombstone when I go
Just put "Death by rock and roll"
[Verse 2]
John forgot what he was on
But he broke the needle, dead and gone
But on my tombstone when I go
Just put "Death by rock and roll"
[Chorus]
I wanna go with a shotgun blast
I wanna go with a woman on her back
I wanna go with balls, I won't pray
I wanna go with this bottle in my veins
I wanna go
I wanna go
I wanna go out my way
[Verse 3]
Amy shot and killed a man
With a gun too heavy in her hand
But on my tombstone when I go
Just put "Death by rock and roll"
[Verse 4]
Janey had steel in her bones
But she burned away, blood into stone
But on my tombstone when I go
Just put "Death by rock and roll"
[Chorus]
I wanna go with a shotgun blast
I wanna go with a woman on her back
I wanna go with this sickness in my throat
I wanna go, killed by rock and roll
I wanna
I wanna go
I wanna go out my way, yeah
[Chorus]
I wanna go with a shotgun blast
I wanna go in a motorcycle crash
Out on my own, I don't need to be saved
I wanna go out my way
[Outro]
But on my tombstone when I go
Just put "Death by rock and roll"
