Well, i killed a girl in memphis, tenessee and i saw her cry
I was watching as the spark of life disappeared from her tear-dimmed eyes

But i'm out for blood, not for love or nothing else
Yeah, i'm undead, you heard what i said, yeah, nothing else

It was sad to watch her die
But vampires don't cry

Well, i brought my coffin to the train and took off to the very next town
Kissed some lady with my lucky lips, yeah, you could say
That i brought her down

Yeah, she tasted fine, but i don't mind that she's not around
'cause i'm out to kill, not to thrill or make her lovin' heart pound

It was sad to watch her die
But vampires never cry

Next stop was a little blond, so lovely that i could make her mine
But i don't regret that we ever met, we both had a killer time
She said she felt a slight unease but i'm not out to please
Come on little baby, just a little bit closer and i'll make your problems cease

Oh, it's alright in the dead of night, i'm feeling fine
With the lady i love, all drained of blood, i'm feeling fine

It was sad to watch her die
But vampires don't cry
