Roger Khart’s Lament (Song Lyric)

I swear I’m needing
at least four women
to feed my appetite.
That’s one for the morning,
one for the evening,
and two to keep me up all night.
I know I’m needin
at least four women
to stir my desolate blood
I need four women
at least four women
To prove I can be loved.

I swear I’m needing
at least four women
to put my mind at ease
One for the heartburn
one for the bellyache
and two to keep me up off my knees
I swear I’m needing
at least four women
to feed my greed for love
that’s one for the morning
one for the evening
two more will be just enough.

That’s one to love – one to watch and pray
two to sing for me over my grave,
I need those women
at least four women
to carry my soul away.

I always want more than I’ve got
I have a little bit but I want the lot.
I need my momma to be always around
I need my sister, keep my feet on the ground
And my daughter I need – to love and admire
Now I need a woman set my mojo on fire

That’s one to love – one to watch and pray
Two to sing for me over my grave
I need those women
at least four women
to carry my soul away.
