JON BON JOVI LYRICS - Blood Money

"Blood Money"



Hey Patty Garrett that's what I used to call you

They tell me you want me but I hear they've got you

They made you a lawman with a badge made of silver

They paid you some money to sell them my blood



But you say, this ain't about me and this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've gotta cause you can't walk away



Wonder what would of have happened if you were the killer and I was the hero

Would things be the same?

Or would I have traded your life for my own life?

Would I have paid your debts in your place?

I don't know



But this ain't about me and this ain't about you

Or the good and the bad times we've both been through

When the lines between brothers and justice have changed

You do what you've gotta cause you can't walk away



Blood money, that's what I call it

'Cause money for blood ain't no fair exchange

Blood money

Bought and then sold you

But your conscience is all you can take to your grave
