Lyrics

Desire

Go where you want to

Do the things you feel

Walk around with a broken leg

And a hundred dollar bill

Get yourself a pistol

Get yourself a dog

Stay up all night gettin' drunk

Sleepin' on a hollow log

Walk 'til you're restless

Sleep 'til you're tired

Wake up without knowing

You're the one that I desire

Lyrics provided by LRCLIB

Reviews

Beck – Ride Lonesome

Beck’s orchestral return makes heartache inviting without smoothing it away, though the songs sometimes settle for a beauty the arrangements work harder to achieve.
