Let me tell you a story from the marrow of my bones
Let me tell you a story that'll teach you how to roam
Let me tell you a story but you ain't ever coming home
Let me tell you a story, hope you like being alone
And I've been down that road
I'm all you need, I'm all she wrote
And come the night it gets so cold
But I'm all you need, baby I'm all she wrote
Let me give you a reason for wanting not to die
Let me give you a reason for knowing how to cry
Let me give you a reason that's gonna make you try
Oh, let me give you a reason and brother this one ain't no lie
And I've been down that road
I'm all you need, I'm all she wrote
And I ain't taking names
Got no time for players, got no time for games
Let me show you the truth, it's right there in your shaking hands
Let me show you the truth of this here promised land
Let me show you the truth it's all that your command
Let me show you the truth of the fortune and the damned
And I've been down that road
I'm all you need, I'm all she wrote
Come the night it gets so cold
But I'm all you need, baby I'm all she wrote
