| Steady now baby, steady now
|
| Quit banging there on my door
|
| I’d be lying if I told you I didn’t wanna
|
| Just have you right here on this floor
|
| It’s been years since I’ve found you
|
| Put my arms around you
|
| And we twisted our limbs into dreams
|
| Did that best to keep up with that wild lovin' cup
|
| 'Til we both ran out of steam
|
| Our love ran out of steam
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now baby, steady now
|
| Quit jabbering outside my door
|
| Used to jangle them keys like a dog scratching fleas
|
| I ain’t jangling keys anymore
|
| I spent ten thousand days days like a runaway slave
|
| Living a wild intoxicant style
|
| Go ahead and get pissed
|
| I don’t mean it as a diss
|
| I need sleep for a little while
|
| Let me sleep for a little while
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now
|
| Steady now mermaid, steady now
|
| You’re swimming away from my door
|
| Did I forget to feed you?
|
| Do you know that I need you?
|
| Do I kneel on linoleum floor?
|
| I know you can’t be tamed but I ain’t ashamed
|
| To beg you for a god damn bone
|
| I quit jangling my keys and I told her to leave
|
| Still I wait at your empty throne
|
| Must I wait at your empty throne?
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now, steady
|
| Steady now |
