I remember when you moved so slow Going to the show Always cooped up in your room With a bottle of whiskey every meal of June I don't know those eyes Why you get so wasted all alone? You're burning out your light You just don't seem oh so bright
What do I have to do to keep your pride I'll be by your side I don't think Lee Hooker could ever sing the blues Not the way I do When I am staring right at you Oh mama please just hold me one more night Before I lose you to the juice
