Beggars And Hangers On lyrics

Slash/Eric Dover/Duff McKagan)

Well I know, you couldn?t love me
Cause you?re promised to a wealthy man
Take a look, what are you seein? ?
Is that a noose or a wedding band

Should I go to see a healer
Nervous twitchin? in my hands
Nervous twitchin? in my head

God help me rid this feelin?
Cause I?m fallin? all to pieces
And I cna?t get out of bed

Beggars and hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible in his pocket
Clouding everything you see
Beggars and hangers-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end is here to stay

God help me rid this feelin?
Cause I?m fallin? all to pieces
And I can?t get out of bed

I was wrong
I don?t need you
It seems reckless
And unfair
Better days
Are far behind
Guess that?s another cross
I?ll have to bear

I know that there?s a time
and a reason
To take the ghost and lock it up inside
And maybe I am down
But I?m not beaten
Like anything
We were born to die

Beggars and hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible in his pocket
Clouding everything you see
Beggars and hangers-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end is here to stay
Beggars and hangers-on
Beggars and hangers-on
No no no no
No no no no
No no no no
