"Get Off On The Pain" lyrics - GARY ALLAN

I don't know why I love women
That love to do me wrong
I don't know why my life sounds like
A heartbroke country song
I ain't really happy
Until the sky starts driving rain
Maybe I just get off on the pain

My whole life I been picking fights
There ain't no way to win
There's a hundred scars and shoulda-run-aways
Now tattooed on my skin
There's a side of me that just won't stop
Dancin' in the flame
Maybe I just get off on the pain

[Chorus:]
'Cause I love the long shots
And the left out lost causes
Hanging out in the back of the pack
With the dark horses
I ride the wrong road
Just as fast as I can
God knows there's no one else to blame
Sometimes I think I get off on the pain

I wake up every morning
A thousand miles from home
Praying for forgiveness
For this aching in my bones
It would be so easy
To find a better way
Oh, but I know I'll never change

[Chorus:]
'Cause I love the long shots
And the left out lost causes
Hanging out in the back of the pack
With the dark horses
I ride the wrong road
Just as fast as I can
God knows there's no one else to blame
Sometimes I think I get off on the pain

'Cause I love the long shots
And the left out lost causes
Hanging out in the back of the pack
With the dark horses
I ride the wrong road just as fast as I can
God knows there's no one else to blame
I know I'm the only one to blame
Sometimes I think I get off on the pain
