Hell Bent on Hard Times Lyrics by Marvel Kendell
Marvel Kendell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There goes the devils on my back
Sleepin' with one eye open
One step shy of a soul attack
Awake, but I ain't woken
Ridin' the rail of a one-way track
Nowhere am I goin'
And there ain't no lookin' back
Where the white line fades to black
[Chorus]
I'm hell bent on hard times
To the bottom of the bottle in a straight line
No Heaven, not my kind
No reason not to turn around
Guess I'll keep runnin' blind
'Cause I'm hell bent on hard times
[Verse 2]
I won't ducktail, I'll blaze a trail
I'm broke, but I ain't broken
I'm a fuse that's lit, I'm a son of a b**ch
A sinner and I own it
My eyes are closed, my gypsy soul
Will forever keep on goin'
And I'll play this lonesome sound
'Til they lay me in the ground
[Chorus]
I'm hell bent on hard times
To the bottom of the bottle in a straight line
No Heaven, not my kind
No reason not to turn around
Guess I'll keep runnin' blind
'Cause I'm hell bent on hard times, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm hell bent on hard times
To the bottom of the bottle in a straight line
No Heaven, not my kind
No reason not to turn around
I guess I'll keep runnin' blind
I'm hell bent on hard times
[Post-Chorus]
I'm hell bent on hard times
[Outro]
You can wallow in despair and say a prayer and curse the sky
Drive yourself mad and sit around sad and wonder why
Beat yourself up from the lack of love like a beatin' from your old man's belt
Or you can be a man and not give a damn, just play the hands you're dealt
