I don't care if my lady's gone
As long as you give me just what i want.
I've been losin' my direction,
Got to find a new connection.
You have wasted the love i tasted,
Now i'm really gettin' hungry more and more.
Been a long time, had a bad sign.
Tell me what am i fighting for?
Let me know you feel it,
You know i really need it.
Keep on pushin' for more,
Lay down, stay down.
I got something to find,
There's one thing i really need.
I'm gonna tell you right now,
Lay down, stay down.
Lookin' for trouble, i guess that's right.
When i was young i was taught to fight.
It's been long gone since i had known,
Now i'm headin' for some more.
Let me know you feel it,
You know i really need it.
Keep on pushin' for more,
Lay down, stay down.
I got something to find,
There's one thing i really need.
I'm gonna tell you right now,
Lay down, stay down.
Let me know you feel it,
You know i really need it.
Keep on pushin' for more,
Lay down, stay down.
I got something to find,
There's one thing i really need.
I'm gonna tell you right now,
Lay down, stay down.
