Lyrics
Hey, what you drinking tonight?
Well I got cut off an hour ago, but now I'm doing alright
You know, it seems like everything goes
But I'm next to you hoping, praying that I am not right
Well my best friend got married and moved out the state
Haven't heard from him since, might as well be Bombay
And my landlord keeps calling, where's yesterday's pay
Well I told her my drain's clogged for sixty-two days
Yes I need you
Well yes I do
So look, well I'm easily tamed
I got more reasons to be here than Jesus has sinners to save
And hey, if I talked would you stay?
And if I talked with you all the way home, would you walk to my place?
Well my rent's in collection, my soul's in the bank
And my blood's being shipped from a dock in Kuwait
And my boss keeps on calling, why you always late?
Yes I told him I don't give a shit 'bout the place
Yes my wallet's in wallstreet, my heart is in hell
There's bullets and bankers and plague in the well
And people keeping saying, why you in a funk?
Yes I told them I really just need to get some
Yes I need you
Well yes I do
I need you
Now it's two in the morning and I'm looking to score
And the bartender tells me I don't need that whore
Yet all I can think is I'm getting too old
Yes I need you to save me from being alone
Yes I need you
Oh yes I need you
Oh yes I need you
Well yes I need you
Hey
Oh
Come on
Yes I need you
Yes I need you
