Shot Of Love (Outtake) [9/26/80]

Don't need a shot of heroin
To kill my disease
Don't need a shot of turpentine
Only bring me to my knees
Don't need a shot of codeine
To help me to repent
Don't need a shot of whiskey
Help me be president

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

Doctor, can you hear me?
I need some Medicaid
I seen the kingdoms of the world
And it's makin' me feel afraid
What I got ain't painful
It's just bound to kill me dead
Like the men that followed Jesus
When they put a price upon His head

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

I don't need no alibi
When I'm spending time with you
I've heard all of them rumors
And you have heard them too
Don't show me no movie films
Or [?] to read
It don't satisfy the hurt inside
Nor the habit that it feeds

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

Why would I want to take your life?
You've only murdered my father, raped his wife
Tattooed my babies with a poison pen
Mocked my God and humiliated my friends

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

Don't wanna be with nobody tonight
Veronica is not here, Mavis just ain't right
There's a man that hates me
And he's swift, smooth and near
Am I supposed to set back
And wait until he's here?

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

What makes the wind wanna blow tonight?
I don't even feel like crossing the street
And my car ain't actin' right
Called hom and everybody
Seemed to have moved away
My conscience is beginning
To bother me today

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

I need a shot of love
I need a shot of love

If you're a doctor
I need a shot of love

Shot of love, I need a shot of love
Shot of love, I need a shot of love
