"Would you put on that long white gown...

...and burn like there's no more tomorrows?
Will you walk with me underground
And forgive all my sicknesses and my sorrows?
Will you be shamed if I shake like I'm dyin'
When I fall to my knees and I'm crying?
Will you visit me where my body rests
Will you put on that long white dress?
Ba dadada, da, badadadada dadada
Ba dadada, da, badadada
The end could be soon, we'd better rent a room
So you can love me
Will you put on that long white dress
While I burn when there's no more tomorrows?
Will you remember me through the years I'll miss
And forget all the sadnesses and the sorrows?
Ba dadada, da, badadadada dadada
Ba dadada, da, badadada
We got buried in the fever
Now you love me
Get a room, so you can love me."

Listen.

It's Mark Lanegan. It's badass.

Speaking of which...

Well I've got a good reason for lovin' you,
it's an old fashioned sign.
It kinda makes me feel like, mmmm,
you know, when I fell in love the first time.

Kind woman, won't you love me tonight,
the look in your eyes.
Kind woman, don't leave me lonely tonight.
Are you sayin' it's all right?

Well remember once before
hearin' the old folks say love's an ageless old rhyme.
Yeah but nowadays you know the sayin' depends
so much on the kind of woman that you find.

Kind woman, won't you love me tonight,
the look in your eyes.
Kind woman, don't leave me lonely tonight.
Please say it's all right.

It's Chris Smithers.

I like badass. Both.
