DEEP PURPLE LYRICS - Dead Or Alive

"Dead Or Alive"



don't turn off the light

you might draw the queen of spades

don't shut the door

you don't need to be alone

i won't bring you no food

there might be some poison in your meat

i've got to know are you dead or alive

don't shut the door are you dead or alive

dead or alive

pick your window you're leaving



don't look in the mirror

with a dollar up your face

you've got money to burn

you're cheap at half the price

oh don't powder your nose

don't blow your brains just for the the

crack

i've got to know are you dead or alive

just for the crack are you dead or alive

dead or alive

pick your window you're leaving



you're running so fast

but you know you're standing still

i'm afraid of your shadow

and the knife in it's hand

you're dancing with death

to the tune of the dealer

and he don't care

don't give a toss

don't want to know if

you're dead or alive

don't want to know if

you're dead or alive

dead or alive

pick your window

you're leaving
