I Want You lyrics

Guilty undertaker sighs

Lonesome organ grinder cries

Silver saxophone says

That I should wait for you

The crack bells and the washed out horns

Blowing into my face with scorn

That's not the way

I wasn't born to lose you

I want you, I want you

I want you so bad

Honey I want you

Drunken politicians leap upon the street

While mothers weep

And saviors were fast asleep

They wait for you

I wait for them to read your looks

While drinking from my broken cup

And ask me to open up the gate for you

I want you, I want you

I want you so bad

Honey I want you

I turn to the queen of spades

And talk to my chambermaid

She knows I'm not afraid to look at her

She is good to me

And there's nothing that she doesn't see

She knows where I like to be

But it doesn't matter

I want you, I want you

I want you so bad

Honey I want you

Now you're dancing child

With his Chinese suit

He spoke to me and I took his flute

I know I wasn't very cute to him was I

But I did it because you like

Because you took him for a ride

Because the time was on his side

And because

I want you, I want you

I want you so bad

Honey I want you
