Desire Lyrics by Carsie Blanton

Buck Up

0

You got a way about you, baby
I got a hunger for you that is killin' me
I'm gonna watch you till they lay me in my grave
You can put on your Sunday suit and dance in my parade
I could die in a flood, sheddin' blood, or a fire
If I don't die of desire
If I don't die of desire
I saw the Mississippi when I was a child
Wanted to jump into that river runnin' wild
My mama told me when she took me in her arms
All of the things we long for come to do us harm
I could die in a flood, sheddin' blood, or a fire
If I don't die of desire
If I don't die of desire
When they lay me in my grave
They're gonna say that I lived right
They're gonna cry for me all night
They're gonna laugh at my epitaph
You can live like a king; you can sing in the choir
But we all die of desire
We all die of desire
