Sun down on the sorry day, by nightlights the children pray
I know you're prob'ly gettin' ready for bed, beautiful woman, get out of my head
I'm so tired of the same old crud
Sweet baby, I need fresh blood
Riff x2
The moon shines in the autumn sky, Growin' cold, the leaves all die
I'm more alone than I've ever been, Help me out of the shape I'm in
After the fires, before the flood
My sweet baby, I need fresh blood
Riff x2
Whatever trepidation you may feel, In your heart, you know it's not real
In a moment of clarity, Summon an act of charity
You gotta pull me out of this mud
Sweet baby, I need fresh blood
Riff x2
