Sloe Gin Lyrics

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin´ to wash away the pain inside
Well I´m sick and I´m all done in
and I´m standing in the rain
and I feel like I´m gonna cry

I´m so fucking lonely
and I ain´t even high
I´m so fucking lonely
and I feel like I´m gonna die

Mayday, mayday I´ve been shot down
over the stormy sea
Well I swear that I´m drifteing away
Just can´t get a grip on me
Well..I can´t even try

I´m so fucking lonely
and I ain´t even high
I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new ?
I´m so fucking lonely

I hate to go home alone,
But what else is new ?
I´m so fucking lonely
I´m so fucking lonely

You stand and bleeding people pass you by
Don´t matter if you live
Don´t matter if you die

Sloe Gin, sloe Gin
Tryin´ to wash away the pain inside
Well I´m sick and I´m all done in
and I´m standing in the rain
and I fell like I´m gonna cry

I´m so fucking lonely
and I ain´t even high
I´m so fucking lonely...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This is a truely amazing song, this song may be about a break up, but when I heard it I felt something strong from it that related to me. I felt like it was about a guy who really loves a girl, and she's perfect in every way for him, but shes already taken by someone close to the man so he refuses to pursue her. Its not that he cant find someone to be with, its that he cant be with who he wants most, which is the cause of his agony. So he drinks to forget it as best he can for a little while, but sooner or later he sobers up and has to face the truth of the matter once again. Thats what the song reminds me of anyways.

Tim Curry is absolutely wonderful and this is my favorite song that he has performed to date!
