Lyrics

[00:15.860] The guilty undertaker sighs,
[00:18.360] The lonesome organ grinder cries,
[00:20.680] The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
[00:25.860] The cracked bells and washed-out horns
[00:27.930] Blow into my face with scorn,
[00:30.549] But it's not that way,
[00:31.870] I wasn't born to lose you.
[00:35.170] I want you, I want you,
[00:40.120] I want you so bad,
[00:44.610] Honey, I want you.
[00:49.680] The drunken politician leaps
[00:52.170] Upon the street where mothers weep
[00:54.610] And the saviors who are fast asleep,
[00:56.930] They wait for you.
[00:59.550] And I wait for them to interrupt
[01:01.870] Me drinkin' from my broken cup
[01:04.700] And ask me to
[01:05.680] Open up the gates for you.
[01:09.180] I want you, I want you,
[01:13.680] Yes, I want you so bad,
[01:18.260] Honey, I want you.
[01:23.390] Now all my fathers, they've gone down
[01:26.100] True love they've been without it.
[01:28.900] But all their daughters put me down
[01:30.760] 'Cause I don't think about it.
[01:35.890] Well, I return to the queen of spades
[01:39.320] And talk with my chambermaid.
[01:41.640] She knows that I'm not afraid
[01:43.760] To look at her.
[01:46.570] She is good to me
[01:48.760] And there's nothing she doesn't see.
[01:51.140] She knows where I'd like to be
[01:53.700] But it doesn't matter.
[01:55.850] I want you, I want you,
[02:00.80] Yes, I want you so bad,
[02:05.100] Honey, I want you.
[02:09.877] Now your dancing child with his chinese suit,
[02:12.879] He spoke to me, I took his flute.
[02:15.379] No, I wasn't very cute to him,
[02:17.760] Was I?
[02:19.760] But I did it, because he lied and
[02:22.320] Because he took you for a ride
[02:24.920] And because time was on his side
[02:27.670] And because I . . .
[02:29.670] I want you, I want you,
[02:33.989] Yes, I want you so bad,
[02:38.189] Honey, I want you.
