I wanna drink that shot of whiskey

I wanna smoke that cigarette

I wanna smell that sweet addiction on my breath

I wanna ride cross west Virginia on 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 uncle joe in oklahoma needs a rain

I need you like a lighthouse on the coast

like the father and the son needs the holy ghost

I need you

I wanna get lost in some corner booth

a canteena in mexico

I wanna dance to the static of an a.m. radio

I wanna wrap the moon around us and lay beside you skin on skin

make love til' the sun comes up and the sun goes down again cause I need you

(Chorus)

like a needle needs a vein

like uncle joe in oklahoma needs a rain

I need you

like a lighthouse on the coast

like the father and the son needs the holy ghost

I need you

I wanna drink that shot of whiskey

I wanna smoke that cigarette

you know some cowboys like me go like that I need you
