[Verse 1] I want to drink that shot of whiskey I want to smoke that cigarette I want to smell that sweet addiction on my breath I want to ride across West Virginia in the backseat of a Cadillac You know some cowboys like me go out like that So I need you [Chorus] Like a needle needs a vein Like my Uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs a rain I need you like a lighthouse on the coast Like the father and the son meet the holy ghost I need you [Verse 2] I want to get lost in some corner booth Cantina Mexico I want to dance to the static of an a.m. radio I want to wrap the moon around us and lay beside you skin on skin Make love 'til the sun comes up til the sun goes down again Cause I need you [Chorus] Like a needle needs a vein Like my Uncle Joe in Oklahoma needs a rain I need you like a lighthouse on the coast Like the father and the son meet the holy ghost I need you Oh, I need you [Verse 3] I want to drink that shot of whiskey I want to smoke that cigarette You know some cowboys like me go out like that So I need you, oh, I need you I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you [Outro] Oh, I need you, I need you I need you, I need you I need you, I need you, I need you, too
