HOTWIRED AMPLIFIER

I got a hotwired amplifier
I got a jet black microphone
I got a hotwired amplifier
I got a jet black microphone
so you can hear my thunder baby
rattling your window all night long

I got your sticky sweet sugar all over my skin
I got your vinegar in my veins
I got your sticky sweet sugar all over my skin
I got your vinegar in my veins
I got your blood beneath my fingernails
and I just feel too sick to pray

I got a hotwired amplifier
I got my telecaster plugged in
I got a hotwired amplifier
I got my telecaster plugged in
fixing to bust out in a sermon baby
loving you is the only unforgiveable sin

I’m gonna buckle my belt and bite my lip
step up on that shadowy stage
I’m gonna buckle my belt and bite my lip
step up on that shadowy stage
if you don’t come to the show tonight honey
I ain’t gonna stop playing til the break of day

I got a hotwired amplifier
I got a supernatural microphone
I got a hotwired amplifier
I got a supernatural microphone
so I can sing about resurrection
healing up my heart you done so wrong
