[Verse 1]
The gypsy undertaker cries
A lonesome organ grinder sighs
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
But it's not that way, I wasn't born to lose you

[Chorus]
I want you
I want you
I want you so bad
Honey, I want you

[Verse 2]
The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
And the saviors who are fast asleep, they wait for you
And I wait for them to interrupt
Me drinking from this broken cup
And ask me to open up the gate for you

[Chorus]
I want you
I want you
I want you so bad
Honey, I want you
[Bridge]
Well, all my fathers, they've gonе down
True love, they'vе been without it
And all their daughters put me down
'Cause I don't think about it

[Verse 3]
I'll return to the Queen of Spades
Talk with her chambermaid
She knows that I'm not afraid to look at her
She is good to me
There's nothing she doesn't see
She knows where I'd like to be, but it doesn't matter

[Chorus]
I want you
I want you
I want you so bad
Honey, I want you

[Interlude]
Thank you
