Nathaniel Rateliff – I Need Never Get Old

Can we be there
Oh just think of the time
Thought of love so strange
Said you never knew
While I try my best
To cover our eyes
It’s a common way to blame and hide the truth

I know that some will say
It matters but little babe
Ah but come on and mean it to me
I need it so bad

I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I’m burning away
I need never get old

Taking our time
Ah just standing in the rain
Meaning what you said
Ah and mean it to me
All of these lies
Oh and never again
Come on and say it now say it’s a game

I know that some will say
It matters but little babe
Ah but come on and mean it to me
I need it so bad
Ah mean it to me
I need it so bad

I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I’m burning away
I need never get old

I said I needed to try
Needed to fall
I needed your love I’m burning away
I need never get old

I said I needed to try
Needed to fall now baby
I needed your love I’m burning away
I need never get old

I need never get old
I need never get old
I need never get old
I need never get old

Nathaniel Rateliff lyrics

Nathaniel Rateliff – S.O.B.

I’m gonna need someone to help me
I’m gonna need somebody’s hand
I’m gonna need someone to hold me down
I’m gonna need someone to care
I’m gonna writhe and shake my body
I’ll start pulling out my hair
I’m gonna cover myself with the ashes of you
And nobody’s gonna give a damn!!!

Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can’t be me
Son of a bitch
If I can’t get clean I’m gonna drink my life away

Now for seventeen years I’ve been throwing them back
Seventeen more will bury me
And somebody please just tie me down
Or somebody get me a goddamn drink

Son of a bitch, give me a drink!
One more night
This can’t be me
Son of a bitch!
If I can’t get clean I’m gonna drink my life away
Hey! Hey!

My heart is breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me!
My heart is breaking, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was aching, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me
My heart was aching, hands are shaking
Bugs are crawling all over me

Son of a bitch, give me a drink
One more night
This can’t be me
Son of a bitch
If I can’t get clean I’m gonna drink my life away
Son of a bitch, give me a drink
Son of a bitch
This can’t be me
Son of a bitch
If I can’t get clean I’m gonna drink my life away
Yeah ah
