[Intro]

Yeah

[Verse 1]

Lover, I'm off the street

I'm gonna go where the bright lights and the big city meet

With a red guitar, on fire

Desire

[Verse 2]

She's the candle burnin' in my room

I'm like the needle, needle and spoon

Over the counter with a shotgun

Pretty soon, everybody got one

[Chorus]

I've a fever when I'm beside her

Desire

Desire

(Right)

And the fever gettin' higher

Desire

Desire

[Post-Chorus]

Burning

Burning

[Bridge]

She's the dollars, she's my protection

Yeah, she's the promise in the year of elections

Oh, sister, I can't let you go

Like a preacher stealin' hearts at a travellin' show

For love of money, money, money, money, money, money

Money, money, money, money, money

[Chorus]

And the fever gettin' higher

Desire

Desire

Desire

Desire

(Babe)

[Harmonica Solo]

[Outro]

Desire

Desire

(Alright)
