Lyrics

[Verse 1: Howlin' Pelle Almqvist] No matter how you cry I can't make it right I'm not your knight in white Your shit got me yawnin' You got your puppy eyes You got your pitiful sighs I got one advice A word of warning [Pre-Chorus: Howlin' Pelle] You thought that I could ease your mind You thought, but this I know If you want help, I should be last in line And I'll tell you why it's so [Chorus: Howlin' Pelle, Nicholaus Arson & Vigilante Carlstroem] I'm not the answer to your problems, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I'm not the one to help you out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I never was the good Samaritan, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I'm not the one to sort you out [Bridge: Howlin' Pelle] Ahhhhh [Verse 2: Howlin' Pelle] So take it away This whole game you play You gotta help yourself Got my own problems So I try to say In every kind of way That your problems stay I ain't gonna solve 'em [Pre-Chorus: Howlin' Pelle] You thought that I could ease your mind You thought, but this I know If you want help, I should be last in line And I'll tell you why it's so [Chorus: Howlin' Pelle, Arson & Vigilante] I'm not the answer to your problems, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I'm not the one to help you out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I never was the good Samaritan, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I'm not the one to sort your out, ooh-ah-ooh-ah [Outro: Howlin' Pelle, Arson & Vigilante] I'm not a shoulder you can lean on, ooh-ah-ooh-ah I'm just a someone who will say, ooh-ah-ooh-ah "I never was the good Samaritan," ooh-ah-ooh-ah I turned my back and walked away
