Be Mine (Live At KCRW) - Alabama Shakes

Well, you come upstairs but not to talk You stay a little while, then you do a little walk on home I hear you downstairs smoking cigarettes I hear you talking, 'cause you ain't got nothing to talk about at all So you took me to the party and got me alone Said you wanna feel good and you feel like you're gonna explode Well, I don't care, can't pay no attention I don't give a- about your intentions at all Hm-hm, hmm So, pass me the whiskey, pass me the gin Pass me whatever there's drink left in Well, I don't care if it's seven in the morning For all I care, it could be the second comin' Well, you say you can't take it anymore It's a really big deal, it's a really big deal Well, I don't care, I can't pay attention I don't give a- about your intentions at all Hoo-hoo! We're alright, alright We're always alright We're alright We're always alright We're alright We're alright, alright We're alright We're always alright We're alright We're alright, ooh

Can't wait for night to come That's when the sun really begins My band cools out when that day is done And then I tuck myself in It ain't no fun to be alone, but I was a night or two lonely And I begin to realize that I can't have everything, everything I can't lie Let's go make memories, precious and temporary Of all the people I meet, I wanna take you out with me It ain't no fun to be alone, well, I was a night or two lonely And I begin to realize that I can't have everything, everything Oh, I can't lie Jesus, he's waitin' on me Just as he always does Something be coming up Just like he always does It ain't no fun to be alone, but I was a night or two lonely And I begin to realize that I can't have everything, everything I can't lie, I can't lie Or do I, do I, do I
