I wanna drink that shot of whiskey I wanna smoke that cigarette I wanna smell that sweet addiction on my breath I wanna 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 the rain I need you Like a lighthouse on the coast Like the father and the son need the holy ghost I need you
I wanna get lost in some corner booth Cantina 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, 'til the sun goes down again 'Cause I need you
[Chorus]
Oh, I need you
I wanna drink that shot of whiskey I wanna 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
Oh, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, too.
