Sudden Death

David Allan Coe · Other Songs - David Allan Coe

Sudden death, that's what you are

Loving you is like riding in a speeding car

They're fun to drive until you drive 'em to far

Sudden death, that's what you are

The way you love me, my heart starts to pumping

Just like a rabbit, hon, you really got me jumping

You must be out for blood the way that you've been humping

I'm just like putty in your hands

Your kiss of love still lingers here on my lips

You've got electric, honey, in your fingertips

I like the way your hair hangs down to your hips

I'm just like putty in your hands
