Lyrics
[Verse 1] Well you can't go here And you can't go there And the police say You can't go anywhere Can't make it up to heaven Got no place to land Guns that want war And clubs in the hand [Chorus] Do you think we'll see the light before the blood hits the street I don't care what they say If there's a will, there's got to be a way If there's a will, there's always a fuckin' way [Verse 2] There's a broke down shack Out on Alabaster Street Take a streetcar named Desire If he can take the hеat There's a yellow-hairеd shake That can get us in for free With gaslight stories And a body like you wouldn't believe [Chorus] Do you think we'll see the light before the blood hits the street I don't care what they say If there's a will, there's got to be a way If there's a will, there's always a fuckin' way [Verse 3] We got a weasel in the pot Filthy romance all around Orpheus descending on the hellish side of town Let's try to get ourselves a front row seat Orpheus and what's her name This is gonna be sweet [Chorus] Darkness has found us with the blood up to our knees I don't care what they say If there's a will, there's got to be a way If there's a will, there's always a fuckin' way
