The Kings Of Caz

Light Me Up

The Kings Of Caz


Last man standing, back to the wind
What a fool to stay out in the cold
Head down, nothing up but a collar
Any better, he don’t know
His back been breaking, jawbone aching
And the hours they’ve been wearing him out
No matter how far he pull the wool down
It don’t cover up the scar on his brow

So I say
Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
You’re the only one that make me high
Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
I’ve been dying, trying to catch your fire

He been sittin’ dead weight on a corner
Salt stains only serve to remind
And he ain’t gone blind, but he can’t see a thing
Through the tears the cold stole from his eyes
I seen many man mind gone afflicted
When a woman caught ahold of his nerve
Like a bottle rocket with a hand in a pocket
Wind up and kick a stone to the curb

Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
You’re the only one that make me high
Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
I’ve been dying, trying to catch your fire

Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
You’re the only one that make me high
Hey there lady
Won’t you come along and light me up
Darling, don’t you know
I’ve been dying, trying to catch your fire
