Gimme Darkness Lyrics by Yella Belly

2023

How come if yah cross your heart- yah hope to die
Oh- it don’t have to be such a tragedy- child
Cause yah come on up-
Raised right enough
Still always somethin’
Gon’ screw it up
So say your prayers
(Say your prayers)
Don’t dare despair
(Don’t despair)
Cause we gon’ raise-
Some Hell, best beware
(Best beware)
And while they bleed
(While they bleed)
Out in the street
(In the street)
Oh we must march till the tide tickles pink
(Judgement day)
Ah gimme Jesus, gimme a good kiss
Gimme somethin’ for nothin’ at all
Gimme this last dance, gimme darkness
Gimme a drink- I think I’ll buy the bar
Ahh bless your heart
(Bless your heart)
The naked part
(Naked part)
It still beats a dead horse
From the start
(From the start)
And bless your soul
(Bless your soul)
That ghost of old
(Ghost of old)
(Yet) In this world
It may still call you home
(Judgement day)
Ah gimme Jesus, gimme a good kiss
Gimme somethin’ for nothin’ at all
Gimme this last dance, gimme darkness
Gimme a drink- I think I’ll buy the bar
And gimme true love, gimme goosebumps
Gimme a gun, it’s so fun I could die
And gimme music, gimme madness
Gimme more and more, more- gimme more
But for the grace
(Of) old Red River
(Oooh)
Oh please lead us where we’re bound-
And we’ll walk (Walk)- side by side
(Side by side)
All so we don’t have to hide-
Cause we comin’ up
Raised tough enough
Still always somethin’
Gon’ screw it up
(Hey Bo Diddley)
Ah gimme Jesus, gimme a good kiss
Gimme somethin’ for nothin’ at all
Give me this last dance, gimme darkness
Gimme a drink- I think I’ll buy the bar
And gimme true love, gimme goosebumps
Gimme a gun, it’s so fun I could die
And gimme music, gimme madness
Gimme me more and more, more- gimme more
And gimme good times, gimme sunshine
Gimme bad vibes and break my poor heart
Gimme children, gimme more time
Gimme darkness- kiss darkness goodnight-
Cause we comin’ up
