[Verse 1]
DI don't why it does but it sure do, don't it, honey?
DBein' in love with you is as easy as spendin' money
DKeep me higher than the fog, it's a-hidin' my copper line-ups
DYeah, there ain't no landing gear on this big jetliner
[Chorus]
DBenedictine baby
DChartreuse snake old lady
Appalachia moonshine Em7crazy
Em7Bible belt and a sinner's fire
Love on a higher wiDre
[Verse 2]
DBrother, it's a mother undercover with a voodoo woman
DRoll the dice, bet your life every night, keep the black magic comin'
DI should run from you like a vampire does from daylight
DBut I don't know how to quit 'cause I know what addiction tastes like
