My lust is a virtue
My story is highly complicated.
By law enforcement it won’t be remediated.
My girl she’s the only one who gets me.
And she gets me she gets me she gets me.
Most days I think I’m invisible.
Faithful that my heart is indivisible.
When they see me, hear my songs, their faces are quizzical.
They get hung up on the metaphysical.
My baby, my baby, my baby she gets me.
She gets to me she gets me she gets to me good.
Sometimes she’s a child.
She’s always a child. I am her father, her son, her best friend.
She’s seen all the scars I am, she seen me barely hold together in the storm. And yes, she’s always there to keep me warm.
I’ve ended a thousand lives
I’ve left behind two
wives
Everywhere I see the knives.
My baby, my baby, my baby she jives .
My baby, my baby, my baby, she always gets me.
My baby she gets to me, she gets to me, she gets to my heart so good
Baby, you’ve always known my lust is a virtue,
You weren’t always sure that I would never hurt you. My baby, my baby my baby I get you my baby I get to you I get to you so good I get you on top I get you underneath, I get you in the light,
And in the dark of night take you like a thief
She is my muse, my muse, the woman I will never ever ever abuse
She brightens my day.
She darkens my night.
She takes my hand and brings me to the light.
When I remember those, I have fought
She captures my heart with a single thought. A thought of love for me.
My lust is a virtue baby
Baby, wait at home for me
And keep the porch light on.
Please keep the coffee hot.
I’m on my way back home.
My baby, my baby, she gets that my lust is my only virtue
That’s something they don’t teach in church y’all
