High up on a rocky ledge Holdin' all she's got It ain't much except The shattered dream and broken heart He used her up Made her old before her time She's gonna take that final step And leave her pain behind All the sins that men commit before their done Her lover had one lying silver tongue She won't speak his name, it's too much to bear But I saw his face as he left her there Wooh oh ohoh Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me) Wooh ahahah wooh Sure looked a lot like me He was just a boy barely 17 Feelin' drunk and talkin' tough But he wasn't really mean Bumped into this sidewinder Should have backed way Gave him some lip Turned out they were The last words he would say All the sins that men commit before their done His killer backed into one smokin' silver gun No one asked his name, nobody cared But I saw his face as the blue smoke cleared Wooh oh ohoh Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me) Wooh ahahah wooh Sure looked a lot like me Devil came and said, Sinner finally you are mine But pardon me Mr. Devil but I think I need more time, I've got a lot of mendin' up in life to do The Devil said, You should have thought of that, Before I came for you Take this rope and wind it once for every lie Once for every thoughtless act And twice for tears they cried Walk 50 miles naked in the desert sun Praying for the souls that you have ruined, one by one No one knew his name, nobody cared But I saw his face as he was hangin' there Wooh oh ohoh Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me) Wooh ahahah wooh Sure looked a lot like me Wooh oh ohoh Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me) Wooh ahahah wooh Sure looked a lot like me He sure looked a lot like me
