Lyrics
There's been a monkey riding on my back for the better part of my life
People that know me gotta stand way back it ain't a pretty sight
The little devil keeps coming & breathing down my neck
Someone tell me something to avert the next train wreck
Chorus:
Cause I cut off my nose to spite my face
People I know gotta give me some space
Throw the baby out with the bath water take it on faith
But I'd give my last greenback to a bum on the street
Shirt off my back to my worst enemy
And I'm always thinking around the next corner there's a better way
I take it on faith
I saw the light at the last accident just a little too late
The price too high but the value of the lesson I take it on faith
The little devil keeps coming & breathing down my neck
Someone tell me something to avert the next train wreck
Chorus:
Cause I cut off my nose to spite my face
People I know gotta give me some space
Throw the baby out with the bath water take it on faith
But I'd give my last greenback to a bum on the street
Shirt off my back to my worst enemy
And I'm always thinking around the next corner there's a better way
I take it on faith
