NO EXCUSES Acoustic Live by NEEDTOBREATHE Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've got this feeling in my bones
That you find a solace in shadows
I don't wanna find out you're going 'round my back
Why you wanna bring me these sorrows?
[Chorus]
'Cause there's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Verse 2]
Girl, I've been your lover since high school
Everything I did, I did for you
If you're gonna tighten this rope around my neck
Girl, you better know I'm gonna fight it
[Chorus]
'Cause there's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
There's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Chorus 2]
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a boy
Oh Lord, I know I'm one
My momma was a tailor
She's sown my old blue jeans
My daddy was a gamblin' man
Oh, he lived down in New Orleans
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a boy
Oh Lord, I know I'm one
[Instrumental]
I've got this feeling in my bones
That you find a solace in shadows
I don't wanna find out you're going 'round my back
Why you wanna bring me these sorrows?
[Chorus]
'Cause there's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Verse 2]
Girl, I've been your lover since high school
Everything I did, I did for you
If you're gonna tighten this rope around my neck
Girl, you better know I'm gonna fight it
[Chorus]
'Cause there's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
There's no excuses for what you're doing
There's no excuses for what you're doing
[Chorus 2]
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a boy
Oh Lord, I know I'm one
My momma was a tailor
She's sown my old blue jeans
My daddy was a gamblin' man
Oh, he lived down in New Orleans
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a boy
Oh Lord, I know I'm one
[Instrumental]
