Lyrics Payback's a Bitch (Live) - Blackberry Smoke

Red sky this morning
Was not much of a warning
For what you had planned for me
Hell hath no fury
She′s a judge and she's my jury
She pulled the world
Right out from under my feet

I′ll take it like a man
No need of feeling sorry for me
But you better understand
Yeah, karma is about a step behind me

If I were you, I'd sleep with one eye open
I'd keep praying, keep hoping
Now you oughta be watching your back
If I were you, I′d be looking over my shoulder
′Cause every day gets closer to what's coming for you
Payback′s a bitch

Don't be so foolish
As to think you made it through this
Smelling like a rose and fancy free
Don′t think you wrecked it
I'll get you when you least suspect it
And tear down that old tangled web you weave

You′re looking at a man
Shining happy like a brand new penny
I hope you're looking for a friend
Yeah, everybody's got a hand that′s empty

If I were you, I′d sleep with one eye open
I'd keep praying, keep hoping
You oughta be watching your back
If I were you, I′d be looking over my shoulder
'Cause every day gets closer to what′s coming for you
Payback's a bitch

If I were you, I′d sleep with one eye open
I'd keep praying, keep hoping
How you oughta be watching your back
If I were you, I'd be looking over my shoulder
′Cause every day gets closer to what′s coming for you

Yeah, if I were you I'd be careful of the stones I′m throwing
I'd be blowing on the dice I′m rolling
Honey, you oughta be watching your back
If I were you I'd be looking ′round every corner
Ain't nobody ever gonna warn ya
Honey, you know that it's true
Payback′s a bitch

Yeah, payback′s a bitch
Hey, payback's a bitch
