Independent Thief Lyrics - Back To Me - Kathleen Edwards

Gimme a bet and I'll take it 

I've twenty bucks says I'm gonna make it 

I've got twenty two fifty in the bank 

And I'd bet it all away given the chance 

I'm the independent thief 

And no one's got a number on me 

Everybody's talking while you save this crowd 

They water down the drinks and the band plays too loud 

Well I don't want nothing from you 

But all I need is just some company 

You're always standing there holding out for more 

When I'm the reason you're always shown the door 

'Cause I'm this city's sweet holy thunder 

I'm the gold of the drug you've been under 

I'm the good teacher that got away 

Button down sweaters and black rimmed frames 

I'm your get out of jail free for a year 

I'm the warden of your heart but I don't keep you near 

I don't want nothing from you 

Well all I need is just some company 

I don't want nothing from you 

Well all I need is just some company
