Lyrics
i bid a dollar on your soul
that was everything i own
but the devil beat me to it
you sold it long ago
i thought that i could save you
from going down that road
lead you away from temptation
but i was such a fool
because trouble's
like a magnet to you
whenever i find trouble
i know that you'll be close
because trouble's
like a magnet to you
i tried to bargain for your soul
win you back and take you home
but the devil wouldn't let me
said a debt to him was owed
you were always chasing thrills
thought that i could save you still
but the devil beat me to it
found you at the bottom of a bottle of pills
because trouble's
like a magnet to you
whenever i find trouble
i know that you'll be close
because trouble's
like a magnet to you
let me wrap my arms around you
don't push me away
i know that your afraid
of the demons out to get you
oh won't you please let me stay
you fell for his seductive charm
when you put a needle in your arm
then the devil took his prize
that's a lesson too late to learn
now you're in trouble
it's like a magnet to you
whenever i find trouble
i know that you'll be close
because trouble
it's like a magnet to you
trouble
it's like a magnet to you
whenever i find trouble
i know that you'll be close
because trouble
it's like a magnet to you
