Lyrics
As I walk down this cold hard street
Under the smoky city light
I think that sometimes a guy just needs a
warm body to spend the night
But that's not what I want to do
I just want to give all of my love to you
This ol' world can knock a guy down pretty low
Everybody's got to take a poke
When the blues hit hard and stick fast
A man could use a woman for an ego stroke
But that's not what I want to do
I just want to give all of my love to you
As I stew in this damn traffic jam
About my employer, Attilla (who'd starve on my pay)
I think about gettin' home to a clean ear
To complain at after a long hard day
But that's not what I want to do
I just want to give all of my love to you
(instrumental)
My love is plutonium in my heart
Critical mass is causin' overload
You give me everything that I could want or need
Let me give you the power from my love before my heart explodes
That is what I want to do
I just want to give all of my love to you.
