Ha Ha Tonka - Hold My Feet to the Fire lyrics

Oh, I'm crying out mercy, mercy, mercy Hold my feet to the fire, baby I thought I was the worst of my kind And I'm sure torture might be a means to my end I see the nature of the beast I swear Something got a hold of me I declare on my life Pain might make some give up everything I like the crime Almost as much as I like the punishment Sometimes I blame curiosity I'm always at fault At least you got me to confess as much Oh, I'm crying out mercy, mercy, mercy Hold my feet to the fire, baby Please whatever you do don't throw me in that briar patch Oh, I'm crying out mercy, mercy, mercy Hold my feet to the fire, baby I'm beginning to think that I might've underestimated you Oh I know you buried the hatchet 'Cause you buried me right beside it I never thought to ask what I had myself in for
