I've got a girl, She tastes like rain on my tongue
She's got the moon in her hips, her eyes burn up like the sun
When I'm gone from my girl and I leave her alone

there aint nothing that I'm running from
There's war in my blood, I still got wars to be won


My baby's soft and sweet, somewhere between a flower and a gun
Where my girl is now, someday that's where I want to be from
But love is a dollar that's already spent, love is a song that we've sung

There's war in my blood, love aint the tune in my lungs
So here's my consolation
It takes two to go to war, and only one to fall in love


I had a girl, don't know precisely what made her run
Skin was like the sky, made my heart beat in side like a drum

Alone from my girl, when we meet in my dreams,
I tell her she'll always be my only one
There's war in my blood,

There aint a thing love could have done
There's war in my blood, There's war in my blood,
There's war in my blood, There's war in my blood,
