I need my sweet loving woman I need to get myself a gun Got my mojo running That's what gets me high Gives me fun Bathe me in a river of gold Far in the wide wild west Steer these fours and fire up my wheels Baptized in blood and glass A smile that turns metal into gold Love that keeps me out from the cold I'm like a Steppenwolf, and I'm running, running wild and I'm running alone Let me be your lover Let me be your man Wanna be a snake coiled around your neck Honey, I'm your devil-man I ain't got no money And I don't look out to your money But I need my woman Like I need my blues in my veins A smile that turns metal into gold Love that keeps me out from the cold I'm like a Steppenwolf, and I'm running, running wild and I'm running alone Call me a stepping stone Call me a vampire man I ain't got no need to sell my soul Can't you understand? I put a spell upon you, make you call at me If you call my name if you mess with me A smile that turns metal into gold Love that keeps me out from the cold I'm like a Steppenwolf, and I'm running, running wild and I'm running alone In the dead of the night When I close my eyes Be my shoulder to lean on Ask you to be my bride Left my family home I didn't learn any sense to age Drifting high and low I've found the devil on the way A smile that turns metal into gold Love that keeps me out from the cold I'm like a Steppenwolf, and I'm running, running wild and I'm running alone
