Deep Purple Lick It Up Lyrics

My shoes are heavy
My feet are winding down
I look for her in comers
But she's not around
What I eat is eating me
It hits me hard
I'm one jack short f a royal flush
A stranger holds the card
Here come the salvation in the shape of my guitar
And I'm gonna ride it like a shooting star
I don't want your money
I don't want your soul
I don't need a reason
I just want to get right down and lick it up
Mother Mercy told t me
A picture never lies
She told me no self respecting hero
Ever cries
The prisoner walks in circles
The victim walks alone
Scissors cut the paper
[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/d/deep-purple-lyrics/lick-it-up-lyrics.html ]
The paper wraps the stone
Standing at the entrance to the gates of paradise
The lights go down the heat goes up that's when I cry
I don't want your money
I don't want your soul
I don't need a reason
I just want to get right down and lick it up
I put my faith in fourtune reaching for the sky
The only game in town that gets me high
I don't want your money
I just want to get right down and lick it up
I don't want your soul
I just want to get right down and lick it up
I don't need a reason
I just want to get right down and lick it up
