The Black Keys - Tighten Up Lyrics

The Black Keys (and the White Stripes) bring a needed sense of accountability return to rock music with a stripped down sound, it is very clear who plays what in almost any Black Keys post. You just do not have that many people really rock.

Check out this clip & Lyrics of "tightening up", a song by Black Keys' latest album "Brothers". Why would LeBron James ever consider leaving Ohio, when it is churning out music like this?

I wanted love
I needed love
Most of all
Most of all
Someone said true love was dead
And I'm bound to fall
Bound to fall for you
Oh what can I do

Take my badge
But my heart remains
Loving you, baby child
Tighten up on you reins
Your runnin wild
Runnin wild
It's true

Sick for days
So many ways
Im achin now
Achin now
Its times like these I need relief
Please show me how
Oh show me how
To get right
Yeah it's outta sight

When I was young
And movin fast
Nothin slowed me down
Oh slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around
Oh come around
Cause I've found...

Living just to keep going
Goin just to be sane
All the while not knowin
It's such a shame

I dont need to get steady
I know just how I feel
I'm tellin you to be ready
My dear
