Long Time Man (Nick Cave version)

Yeah, they came to take me away
Said, "I'd be sittin' here for the rest of my life"
But I don't really care, I shot my wife
And brother, I can't even remember the reason why

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Well I ain't had no love, since I don't know when
Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad

We was down in Jacksonville, a cold winter night
My baby and I, we began to fight
I heated up and I grabbed my gun
Ooh, I get so cold on those nights down south

She was layin' in a pool right there on the kitchen floor
She looked up at me and began to smile
Her gaspin' words, "Baby, I love you"
Then she closed those baby blue eyes

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Aah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Well I ain't had no love, since I don't know when
Oh It sure makes a long time man feel bad

It makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a feel so bad
Sometimes I hear you call my name
In the dead of the night, yeah

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Hmm yeah
Feel bad, bad

I ain't had those arms around me
I ain't had those lips, those lips, around me
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
So bad

It sure makes a long time man feel bad
So bad
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, so bad
