(Feat. Irma Thomas) I shoulda known better Than to run through a ring of fire I shoulda known better Than to shoot with a gun for hire I shoulda known better Than to repeat everything I seen I shoulda 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 shoulda left well enough alone I shoulda known better Than to sit back and watch it burn I shoulda known better Than to stick to the rules I learned I shoulda known better Than to stare down the voodoo queen I shoulda 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 shoulda 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 shoulda left well enough alone
