That old dog has chained you up alright
|
Give you everything you need to live inside a twisted cage
|
Sleep beside an empty rage
|
I had a dream I was your hero
|
|
Chorus:
|
Damn I wish I was your lover
|
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
|
Make sure you are smiling and warm
|
I am everything
|
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
|
Do such things to ease your pain
|
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
|
|
This monkey can't stand to see you black and blu
|
Give you something sweet each time you
|
Come inside my jungle book
|
What is it just too good
|
Don't say you'll stay
|
'Cause then you go away
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Shucks for me there is no other
|
You're the only shoe that fits
|
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
|
Damn I wish I was your lover
|
|
If I was your girl believe me
|
I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
|
We could groove along and feel much better
|
I could do it forever and ever
|
Give me an hour to kiss you
|
Walk through heaven's door I'm sure
|
We don't need no doctor to feel much better
|
Let me in
|
Forever and ever and ever and ever
|
|
I sat on the mountainside with peace of mind
|
I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
|
Walked for days with no one near
|
And I return as chained and bound to you
|
|
Chorus
|
