She Tried to Kill Me (70's Rock Mix)

[Verse] She took a blade and ran it through me oh it cut so deep Poisoned all my morning coffee didn't hear a peep She left my truck up on a hill without a single brake Swore she'd love me till the end but it was all just fake [Verse 2] Late at night she poured some whiskey straight into my tea She smiled while signing all the papers said she'd soon be free Threw me into cold deep waters knew I couldn't swim Love was just a kind disguise for her deadly whim [Chorus] My baby tried to kill me smiling like the dawn Left me in the dust and darkness before she could be gone But my heart keeps beating stubborn to the bone That angel tried to kill me but I'm living here alone [Bridge] Every time I close my eyes I see her wicked grin Almost wish she finished me with that cruel sin Memories like broken glass scattered on the floor She shut and locked the windows but I busted down the door [Verse 3] Dug a hole out in the meadow said it’s for a tree But I saw her standing with a shovel looking straight at me Took my keys and crashed my Chevy almost killed us both When I saw her laughing I knew she took an awful oath [Chorus] My baby tried to kill me smiling like the dawn Left me in the dust and darkness before she could be gone But my heart keeps beating stubborn to the bone That angel tried to kill me but I'm living here alone
