Earth (Fever Called Love)

Lyrics

Don't you go lookin' for the things in the Earth Deep in the ground with the dark and the dirt Don't you go chasin' those things in the Earth First come last and the last come first The heart is a cold, black snake slippin' into your shoe Well a cheap shot of rice served neat, boy I wouldn't refuse, no I been to the north and I been to the south The east and the west and the river's cold mouth I been washed in the bourbon, washed in the blood Down forty days in a maze of love 'Cause love comes easy to a boy that's got nothin' to lose Got that whiskey like a long black snake crawlin' into my shoes, yeah Here it comes Well everybody needs to need somethin' And everybody thinks they don't know oh Well everybody knows they got somethin' They got that silly kind of fever called love yeah Well everybody thinks they need somethin' And everybody thinks you don't know oh Well everybody knows they got somethin' They got that silly kind of fever called love yeah I once had a woman, she was hot as a stone Hair like a river so I brought her on home But I found that she wasn't made of skin and bone Just cellophane, string and an old cell phone 'Cause loving comes easy to a boy got nothin' to lose Get that whiskey like a long, black snake crawlin' into my shoes yeah Don't you go lookin' for the things in the Earth Deep in the ground with the dark and the dirt Don't you go chasin' those things in the Earth First come last and the last come first Don't you go lookin' for the things in the Earth Deep in the ground with the dark and the dirt Don't you go chasin' those things in the Earth First come last and the last come first A heart is a cold, black snake slippin' into your shoe Well a cheap shot of rice served neat, boy I wouldn't refuse, no Well everybody thinks they need somethin' And everybody thinks you don't know oh Well everybody knows they got somethin' They got that silly kind of fever called love yeah Well everybody thinks they need somethin' And everybody thinks you don't know oh Well everybody knows they got somethin' They got that silly kind of fever called love yeah
