Heart of Steel (v2)

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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
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
