She is a wicked ride

Yes she is

She said I'm gonna make you climb right out yourself

She said now break free

You might have to give up your life

But I was thinking

I'd love to get inside you



I drink your poison if you fill the cup

You make me crazy, baby, don't let up

But if I'm falling I don't wanna stop

I'd give up everything to have your love

I drink your poison if you fill the cup

I'd drink your tears, don't you cry, cry, cry, cry



She is a wicked high

Yes she is

She goes down so hard

She might never come back

She's gonna break free

But she loves to laugh

But I was thinking

I'd love to get some of that



I drink your poison if you fill the cup

You make me crazy, baby, don't let up

But if I'm falling I don't wanna stop

I'd give up everything to have your love

I drink your poison if you fill the cup

I'd drink your tears, don't you cry, cry, cry, cry



She's so

She's gonna break free

She's gonna laugh

She's gonna break free

Aww, she's gonna break free

Aww, well that's alright by me

Yeah, yeah



I drink your poison if you fill the cup

You make me crazy, baby, don't let up

But if I'm falling I don't wanna stop

I'd give up everything to have your love

I drink your poison if you fill the cup

I'd drink your tears, don't you cry, cry, cry, cry



But the way she does me

The she hates to love me

If you fill the cup, I'll drink you up, baby



I drink your poison if you fill the cup

You make me crazy, baby, don't let up

And if I'm falling I don't wanna stop

I'd give up everything to have your love

I drink your poison if you fill the cup

I'd drink your tears



Yes, I'm gonna rain

She don't need me

She don't need anything

Aww yeah

She gonna leave

She gonna ride the soul, soul, soul, ride



She gonna

She'll ride the sunshine

Aww, she gonna break free

Gonna break out of here

Gonna



Aww yeah
