Lyrics

Sweet child in time You'll see the line The line that's drawn between Good and bad See the blind man Shooting at the world Bullets flying Ohh taking toll If you've been bad Oh Lord I bet you have And you've not been hit Oh by flying lead You'd better close your eyes Ooohhhh bow your head Wait for the ricochet I wanna hear you sing
Writer(s): Jon Lord, Ian Paice, Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover Lyrics powered by www.musixmatch.com
