I was out this mo'nin, feelin' blue
I said-a, ′Good-lookin′ girl can I make love with you?'
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in this world you do


I went back home, put on my tie
Gon′ get that girl that 'is money will buy
A-hey-hey, babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do

She looked at me, begin to smile
Hey-hey babe, ′Can't you wait a little while?
No, no babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you
No, no babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in this world you do

'Oh, I′ve got blood in my eyes for you′

(Guitar & fiddle)

No, no ma'am, I can′t wait
You got my money, tryin' to break this date
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in the world you do


I'm gonna tell you somethin′
Gon′ tell you the fact
If you don't want me, give my money back
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in this world you do

It ain′t no need a-gettin' roustin' yo jaws
Ya ain′t gonna get none of my Santa Claus
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you
Hey-hey-hey, babe
I've got blood in my eyes for you-ooo
I′ve got blood in my eyes for you, baby
I don't care what in this world you do.
