It's that velvet horned buck
Telling me to measure up
He locks my eyes
And I know just what I'm here for.
Love be swift love be kind
While you're making up your mind
Yeah I know I don't deserve it
But I need something to spell me
It's Friday night everything's shut down
Cause everyone around here is broke and
tired
Steam is rising from an August storm
It's like I just got born
So life be honest life be free
While you're pouring out of me
Or swelling up
Cause I know that I get greedy
And I know this creek is gonna rise
And sometimes it will run dry
Yeah please don't let me waste it
But please don't let me drown
Give me a moon to keep my fears at bay
Give me a dog that don't run away
Give me a love that don't fade
Oh let me walk in decency
Death be gentle death be proud
But most of all just be allowed
Oh let me pull the knife
Across for mercy's sake now
And if I just don't have the guts
Will you come and prop me up
Yeah I know what's right
Oh but I just can't seem to do it
Give me a moon to keep my fears at bay
Give me a dog that don't run away
Give me a love that don't fade
Oh let me walk in decency
