I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love.



Don't need a shot of heroin to kill my disease

Don't need a shot of turpentine, to bring me to my knees

Don't need a shot of codeine to help me to repent

Don't need a shot of whiskey, help me to be president



I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love



Doctor, can you hear me? i need some medicaid

I seen the kingdoms of the world and it's making me feel afraid

What i got ain't painful, it's just bound to kill me dead

Like the men that followed jesus, they put a price upon his head



I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love



I don't need no alibi when i'm spending time with you

I've heard all of them rumors and you have heard em too

Don't show me no picture show or give me no book to read

It don't satisfy the hurt inside nor the habit that it feeds



I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love



Why would i want to take your life?

You've only murdered my father, raped his wife

Tattooed my babies with a poison pen

Mocked my god, humiliated my friends



I don't wanna be with nobody tonight, veronica ain't nowhere, mavis just ain't right

There's a man that hates me, he's swift, smooth and near

Am i supposed to set back and wait until he's here?



I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love
