Story Behind The Song
I wrote the lyrics to this after a series of really bad days one week. Seemed like nothing was going right. work, relationship. Nothing.
I was telling someone about it and they became a little stand offish And the whole thing just sorta took off from there. I just thought, "if you can't take the heat..........then get out of my hell". My life isn't for everyone sorta thing. Not for the weak of heart. Buyer beware. Don't stand too close to the cage, The monkey might grab you..............all that stuff.
Song Description
Sort of a " if you don't like it leave it" song
the phrase "if you can't take the heat get out of my hell" pretty much says it all.

Lyrics
verse:
she won't sleep with me theres too many bones layin under her bed
slave driving back breakin corporate boss man
is gettin into my head
everydays a new day
of falling one day behind
slowly going under-losing my mind
working straight sixes diggin shallow ditches
nothing for nothing yes I know it well
a no win situation it's sad to tell
If you can't take the heat-get out of my hell
verse:
I can't keep out of the rain a black cloud and thunder
is hanging over my head
somebody someone's talking to me
can't hear a workd they've said
life is a bitch
with my nose to the grind
I'm slowly going under losing my mind
hanging from a grape vine searchin for a new wine
a two faced backstabber for a friend
a sad situation will it ever end
and if you can't take it-no if you can't take it
chorus:
If you can't take the heat -get out of my hell
you can't be hanigng with the big dog a bangin
bangin a bell
if you can't take the heat -get out of my hell
it's not the life I choose it's who I am
and if you can't take it
Get out of my hell!
