Prodigal Blues Lyrics by Billy Idol

Prodigal Blues Lyrics

    Riding my life
    Like a run-a-way train
    Moving from
    One track to that
    Howling, crying,
    Screaming at the moon
    Only my voice came back
    Only the echo came back

    When i was a boy
    Daddy told me
    Grow tall
    Yes and billy don't crawl
    Taught me how to ride
    Set me out on my own
    And i never came back

    And yes i'd do it again
    Oh wouldn't you
    Yeah i'd do it again
    A-huh oh yeah
    Do it again
    Baby
    Wouldn't you?

    Remember
    When i lied
    Just when you
    Needed me
    Now i sit
    Alone and cry
    Cos now i believe in mercy
    Remember when i lied
    Just when you needed me baby
    I believe in mercy

    Riding, walking
    Looking so cool
    Guess i crossed
    Over the borderline
    Treated like a dunce
    Who just can't read
    Did i fool me too?
    And yes i'd do it again
    Oh wouldn't you
    Yes i'd do it again
    Aha yeah i'd do it again
    Baby
    Wouldn't you

    Remember
    When i lied
    Just when you
    Needed me
    Now i sit
    Alone and cry
    Cos now i believe in mercy
    Remember when i lied
    Now that you
    Needed me
    Yes i believe in mercy

    I said "come here"
    Look into my face
    And hear into my heart
    Hesitation
    Could re-arrange
    The other side
    To your love
    Take hold now baby
    And take
    What other
    Lovers have not
    Times is changing
    Will they re-arrange

    The other side to your love
    No-woah woah woah
    Yeah

    Wooooo

    (come home
    Here he is impatient one
    Come home
    Come home
    Tell the story)

    Come home
    Here he is
    The impatient one
    Come home
    To claim a glory
    Prodigal son
    Come home
    Prodigal bum
    Come home
    Prodigal son
    Prodigal son
    Come home
    To claim a glory
    Prodigal son
    Come home
    Prodigal son
    Come home
    Prodigal bum
    Here he comes
    Yeah that prodigal son
    Ooooh
    He's the one
    To tell his story
    C'mon to tell his story
    Tell his story
    To claim his glory
