Real Thing Lyrics

I messed around as a little boy

 I grew up, made the blade my new toy

 Friends said boy with what you screwin' around I said

 Don't concern yourselves and just

 Gimme another blast

 Yeah

 

 [CHORUS]

 Under the hill, with just a few notches on my belt

 Take it away, don't want no more

 Even if you say just one more

 I won't leave you alone

 

 I grew up, went into rehab

 You know the doctors never did me no good

 They said son you're gonna be a new man

 I said thank you very much and

 Can I borrow fifty bucks?

 

 [CHORUS]

 

 'Cause I'm goin' down the steps on a white lne

 Goin' down the steps on a white line

 Goin' down the steps on a white line

 Straight to nowhere

 [REPEAT]

 

 I messed around as a little boy

 I grew up, made the blade my new toy

 Friends said boy with what you screwin' around I said

 Don't concern yourselves and just

 Gimme another blast

 Yeah

 

 [CHORUS]

 

 'Cause I'm goin' down the steps on a white line

 Goin' down the steps on a white line

 Goin' down the steps on a white line

 Straight to nowhere
