What is life if not a joke
One night she went out for smokes
And they took her apart like a rag doll
In the back of a van
In an Alabama motel room
I have one of them tied up in the bathroom
I am down and out
But he will not get away with it again

When the night comes in
I hope I'm out of the rain
When the night comes in
She makes me whole again

I never sleep, I just watch TV
And the gun, it lies next to me
Whispering
In an Alabama motel room
I reflect on her sweet perfume
I am down and out
But they will not get away with it again


When the night comes in
I hope I'm out of the rain
When the night comes in
She makes me whole again

Say you love me
We will never get the chance again
Say you love me
We will never get the chance again


When the night comes in
I hope I'm out of the rain
When the night comes in
She makes me whole again
When the night comes in
I hope I'm out of the rain
