Lucinda Williams

Song Lyrics

Written by Lucinda Williams

Baby, sweet baby, you`re my drug

Come on and let me taste your stuff

Baby, sweet baby, bring me your gift

What surprise you gonna hit me with

Refrain:

I am waiting here for more

I am waiting by your door

I am waiting on your back steps

I am waiting in my car

I am waiting at this bar

I am waiting for your essence

Baby, sweet baby, whisper my name

Shoot your love into my vein

Baby, sweet baby, kiss me hard

Make me wonder who`s in charge

(Repeat Chorus)

Baby, sweet baby, I wanna feel your breath

Even though you like to flirt with death

Baby, sweet baby, can`t get enough

Please come find me and help me get f-----d up

(Repeat Chorus)

Your essence

Your essence
