lyrics

Well it still looks the same down memory lane
You and I were doing just fine
You'd give me that certain stare
And you'd stroke my face and swear
That you'd be nobody's baby but mine

But then one day you spoke, and the floodgates broke
As you told me you'd be seeing another guy
And no matter how hard I fought
I couldn't get rid of the thought
That you were nobody's baby but mine

Well I let out a scream like you used to do for me
I didn't know what to believe in
And although you may scoff
I didn't want to get off
I just wanted to get even

I knew just what to do; I got out my twenty-two
Dusted it off and gave it a shine
I worked out times and places
To blow holes through your two faces
Make you nobody's baby but mine

And I guess that I'm to blame for my shocking aim
I thought I had you right in my line
But my hand must have been shaking
Still, at least I did your mate in
So you're nobody's baby but mine

Well you let out a scream like you used to do for me
Those memories came back in a flood
And I couldn't pull the trigger
'Cause you looked such a pretty figure
As you lay there in a pool of his blood

So they dragged me down the docks and they slammed shut the locks
And I'm rotting in this hellhole doing time
But I still embody your worst fears
'Cause I'll be back in twenty years
To make you nobody's baby but mine
