I should have known better
Than to run through a ring of fire
I should have known better
Than to shoot with a gun for hire
I should have known better
Than to repeat everything I seen
I should have known better
But now it don't mean a thing
Deep down inside
I got a heart of steel
I'll take the pain
Turn it in to something real
Deep down inside
I got a heart of gold
It's too late
To change the past
I'll be the first to admit
I should have left well enough alone
I should have known better
Than to sit back and watch it burn
I should have known better
Than to stick to the rules I learned
I should have known better
Than to stare down the voodoo queen
I should have known better
But now it don't mean a damn thing
Deep down inside
I got a heart of steel
I'll take the pain
Turn it in to something real
Deep down inside
I got a heart of gold
It's too late
To change the past
I'll be the first to admit
I should have left well enough alone
(Deep down inside)
Hey
(Deep down inside)
Deep down inside
I got a heart of steel
I'll take the pain
Turn it in to something real
Deep down inside
I got a heart of gold
It's too late
To change the past
I'll be the first to admit
I should have left well enough alone
