Lyrics You Could Be Mine - Live In New York, Ritz Theatre - May 16, 1991 - Guns N' Roses

Girl, you could be mine

I'm a cold heartbreaker
Fit to burn and I'll rip your heart in two and I'll leave you lyin' on the bed
I'll be out the door before you wake it's nothin' new to you
'Cause I think we've seen that movie too, oh
'Cause you could be mine but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done I said you could be mine, oh

Now holidays come and then they go
It's nothin' new today collect another memory
When I come home late at night don't ask me where I've been
Just count your stars I'm home again, oh
'Cause you could be mine but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, you could be mine

Ooh, you've gone sketchin' too many times
Ooh, why don't you give it a rest
Why must you find
Another reason to cry?

While you're breakin' down my back and I been rackin' out my brain
It don't matter how we make it 'cause it always ends the same
You can push it for more mileage but your flaps are wearin' thin
And I could sleep on it 'til mornin' but this nightmare never ends
Don't forget to call my lawyers with ridiculous demands
And you can take the pity so far but it's more than I can stand
'Cause this couch-trip's gettin' older tell me, how long has it been?
'Cause five years is forever and you haven't grown up yet
Oh, you could be mine but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done I said you could be
You should be you could be mine
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine (you could be mine)
You could be mine, yeah
