And I've got the blues for you As I stand by your flame I get burned once again Feelin' low down, I'm blue As I sit by the fire Of your warm desire I've got the blues for you, yeah Every night you've been away I've sat down and I have prayed

Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses we'll ride them some day Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady you know who I am You know I can't let you

Take me down little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning And I won't forget to put roses on your grave Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I only get my rocks off While I'm dreaming While I'm sleeping I only get my rocks off Only get them off Heading for the overload Splattered on the dirty road Kick me like you've kicked before I can't even feel the pain no more

Hey hey hey Hey hey yeah Yeah when you call my name I salivate like a Pavlov dog Yeah when you lay me out Feeling so tired, can't understand it Just had a fortnight's sleep I'm feeling so tired, I'm so distracted Ain't touched a thing all week

Before I commit a crime I'm gonna leave you, baby You put poison in my coffee Instead of milk or cream You tried so hard to kill me But woman, it was just not my time You're 'bout the evilest woman That I ever seen Yeah, I'm gonna leave you, baby

You're not the only one With mixed emotions You're not the only ship Button your coat Let's go out dancing Adrift on this ocean That's feeling lonesome Button your lip, baby Go for the throat

Get your kicks on Route sixty six Well goes from St. Louie down to Missouri You'll see Amarillo and Gallup, New Mexico Flagstaff, Arizona don't forget Winona Kingman, Barstow, San Bernadino Would you get hip to this kindly tip And go take that California

I sit and watch As tears go by It is the evening of the day I sit and watch the children play Smiling faces I can see But not for me My riches can't buy everything I want to hear the children sing All I hear is the sound

I'll never be your beast of burden All I want for you to make love to me Am I hard enough? Am I rough enough? Am I rich enough? I'm not too blind to see Never, never, never, never, never, never, never be My back is broad but it's a hurting I've walked
