Johnny Winter - Step Back Lyrics






Unchain My Heart

Unchain my heart, baby let me be
Unchain my heart 'cause you don't care about me
You've got me sewed up like a pillow case
But you let my love go to waste
Unchain my heart, baby let me be

Unchain my heart, oh baby let me go
Unchain my heart, 'cause you don't love me no more
When I call you on the phone
Some fella tells me that you're not at home
Unchain my heart, baby set me free

I'm under your spell, like a man in a trance
You know darn well, that I don't stand a chance
Unchain my heart, let me go my way
Unchain my heart, you worry me night and day
You know you got my heart of misery
When you don't care a bag of beans for me
Unchain my heart, baby set me free

I'm under your spell, like a man in a trance
You know darn well, that I don't stand a chance
Unchain my heart, let me go my way
Unchain my heart, you worry me night and day
You know you got my heart of misery
When you don't care a bag of beans for me
Unchain my heart, baby set me free
Baby set me free, set me free, set me free

Can't Hold Out (Talk To Me Baby)

I just talked to my baby on the telephone
She said, "Stop what you're doing, come on home"
I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feelin' talking to you on the phone

You said, "Baby don't you worry, don't you cry
You know that I love you baby, you're my heart's desire"
I can't hold out, can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling, talking to you on the phone

She said, "Baby you can run, you can walk or fly
You know I love you baby, you're my hearts desire"
I can't hold out, I can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone

You said, "Baby don't you worry, you're my heart's desire
You know that I love you, I can't stand to see you cry"
I can't hold out, can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling, talking to you on the phone

She said, "Baby you can run, you can walk or fly
You know I love you baby, you're my hearts desire"
Can't hold out, can't hold out too long
I get a real good feeling talking to you on the phone

Well, talk to me baby, talk to me baby
I said, talk to me baby, talk to me baby
Talk to me baby, talk to me baby
I said, talk to me baby, talk to me baby
I get a real good feelin' talking to you on the phone

Dont Want No Woman

I don't want no woman telling me what to do
I don't want no woman telling me what to do
Well, I'm grown now, darling, just as grown as you

I don't want no woman telling me this and that
I don't want no woman telling me this and that
Well it makes me mad, darling, and I don't go for that

You drink your whiskey, I'll drink my wine
You tend to your business and I'll tend to mine

I don't want no woman, telling me how to live my life
Well I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't want no wife

Well you used to boss your man, that I can't deny
Before I let you boss me, I lay down and die

I don't want no woman telling me how to live my life
Well I'm gonna leave you darling, 'cause I don't want no wife, oh yeah

Killing Floor

I should'a quit you, long time ago
I should'a quit you, baby, long time ago
And I wouldn't've been down here, down on the killin' floor

If I ha'da followed, my first mind
If I ha'da followed, my first mind
I'd'a been down here, this all my second time

I should'a gone on, when my friend come from Mexico with me
I should'a gone on, when my friend come from Mexico with me
I wouldn't've been here, down on the killin' floor

I should'a quit you, long time ago
I should'a quit you, baby, long time ago
And I wouldn't've been down here, down on the killin' floor

If I ha'da followed, my first mind
If I ha'da followed, my first mind
I'd'a been down here, this all my second time

I should'a gone on, when my friend come from Mexico with me
I should'a gone on, when my friend come from Mexico with me
I wouldn't've been here, down on the killin' floor

Who Do You Love

I walk 47 miles of barbed wire
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie
I got a brand new house on the roadside
Made from rattlesnake hide

I got a brand new chimney made on top
Made out of a human skull
Come on take a walk with me, baby
And tell me, who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

I rode around the town, use a rattlesnake whip
Take it easy baby, don't give me no lip

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Tombstone hand and a graveyard mine
Just 67 and I don't mind dying

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Baby took me by my hand
She said, "Oohwee Bo, you know I understand."

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Night was dark, but the sky was blue
Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew
Heard a bump and somebody screamed
You should have heard just what I seen

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Where Can You Be

Ev'ry sixty second, of ev'ry minute
Ev'ry sixty minute, of the hour
Ev'ry twenty-four hours of the day
I just sit a-round an'pray

Wonder where, I wonder where can you be?
I wonder, where, well babe
Please come on home to me?

Ev'ry seven days, of the week
Ev'ry four week, of the month
Ev'ry twelve month, of the year
I just sit an' wish, you was here

Wonder where, I wonder where can you be?
I wonder where baby
Please come on home to me

Sweet Sixteen

When I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
Well, when I first met you, baby
Baby, you were just sweet sixteen
You just left your home then, woman
The sweetest thing I'd ever seen

But you wouldn't do nothing, baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You know, you wouldn't do nothing, baby
You wouldn't do anything I asked to
You ran away from your home, woman
And now you try to run away from Johnny too

You know I love you, baby
I'll do anything you tell me to
Well, you know, you know I love you, baby
And I'll do anything you tell me to
Well, there ain't nothing babe,
Nothing in the world I wouldn't do it for you

You can treat me mean, baby
But I'll go on loving you just the same
You can treat me mean baby
But I'll go on loving you just the same
But one of these days, baby
You're gonna give a lot of money
To hear someone call my name

Sweet sixteen... yes, sweet sixteen baby
The sweetest thing
The sweetest thing I ever seen
sweet sixteen baby
The sweetest thing I ever seen
You know I'm having so much trouble, baby
Baby I wonder
Yes I wonder
Baby I wonder
Oh, I wonder what in the world's gonna happen to me

Oh yeah she don't stand no cheatin', my babe
Oh yeah she don't stand no cheatin',

Oh yeah, she don't stand no foolin', my babe

Mojo Hand

I'm goin' to Louisiana, and get me a mojo hand
I'm goin' to Louisiana, and get me a mojo hand
I'm gonna fix my woman so she can't have no other man

Cold ground was my bed last night, rocks was my pillow too
Cold ground was my bed last night, rocks was my pillow too
Well I woke up this morning, "What am I gonna do?"

I lay down thinking, "Buy me a mojo hand."
I lay down thinking, "Buy me a mojo hand."
I did wanna fix my woman so she can't have no other man

But don't let your woman, fix you like mine fixed me
Don't let your woman, fix you like mine fixed me
She make a fool about her, about as a fool can be

Well a woman act funny, when she got another man
And a woman act funny, when she got another man
You know she won't look straight at you, and she's always raisin' sand

Blue Monday

Blue monday how I hate blue monday
Got to work like a slave all day
Here come Tuesday, oh hard Tuesday
Gotta work got no time to play

Here come Wednesday, I'm beat to my socks
My gal calls, got to tell her that I'm out
'Cause Thursday is a hard workin' day
And Friday I get my pay

Saturday mornin', oh Saturday mornin'
All my tiredness has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And I'm out on the stand to play

Sunday mornin' my head is bad
But it's worth it for the time that I had
But I've got to get my rest
'Cause monday is a mess
