This is how I built my wife, Brought a dead body to life, With the soul of a gypsy queen, And the brightest eyes that I'd ever seen. Gave her two murderous hands, And to act the, the devil's dance, I last gave her half of my heart To make sure that we were never apart. There must have been a mix up along the way I must have made a mistake. Now listen closely to what I'm gonna say If you cross me, I'll cut you. There must have been a mix up along the way, I must have made a mistake. Now listen closely to what we're gonna say, If you cross me, I'll cut you. One morning when I woke To the blackest cloud of smoke, Seems the neighbors had conspired To bring the house down with fire Because I loved my devil bride, Found our love so hard to hide. I brought you into this world, I will take you out baby girl. There must have been a mix up along the way, I must have made a mistake. Now listen closely to what we're gonna say, If you cross me, I'll cut you. There must have been a mix up along the way, I must have made a mistake. Now listen closely to what we're gonna say, If you cross me, I'll cut you. There must have been a mix up along the way, I must have made a mistake. Now listen closely to what we're gonna say, If you cross me, I'll cut you. There must have been a mix up along the way, I must have made a mistake. You weren't supposed to know how to run away, If you cross me, I'll cut you. If you cross me, I'll cut you.
