I've been sinning I've been livin' I've been beaten By Saturdays On a diamond I lay on a diamond On a diamond I lay awake D'Artagnan Good ol' D'Artagnan He ain't got a thing on me I've been minding To my field of timing Too bad your time in It just never came Well I don't know how else to say it In a diffrent way But why don't you just fade away 'Cause there's a battle going on Down south of Babylon So why don;t you just fade away I've been dealing I've been healing I've been dealing A crooked game Thieving pirates I'm thieving pirates out of gold that they stole from the queen Stole from a man Who's favorite hand Is one that he will always lack Well I'm building this levee by the Mississippi Or I'll die in an unmarked bay Well I don't know how else to say it In a different way but why don't you just fade away 'cause there's a battle goin on Down south of Babylon So why don't you just fade away
