Lover, I'm on the street Gonna go where the bright lights And the big city meet With a red guitar...on fire Desire
She's a candle burning in my room Yeah I'm like the needle, needle and spoon Over the counter with a shotgun Pretty soon everybody got one And the fever when I'm beside her Desire, desire...
And the fever...getting higher Desire, desire...burning, burning
She's the dollars She's my protection Yeah she's a promise In the year of election Oh sister, I can't let you go Like a preacher stealing hearts At a traveling show For love or money money money money money money money money money money money And the fever, getting higher Desire, desire, desire, desire Desire, desire
