I Need a Miracle Live at Pine Knob Music Theater Clarkston MI June 20 1991 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I need a woman about twice my age
A lady of nobility, gentility and rage
Splendor in the dark, lightning on the draw
We'll go right through the book and break each and every law

[Chorus]
Every day, believe what you do, yeah
Just one thing that I got to say
I need a miracle every day

[Verse 2]
I need a woman about twice my height
Statuesque, raven-dressed, a goddess of the night
Her secret incantations with a candle burning blue
Raise up the spirits in a midnight rendezvous

[Chorus]
'Cause it's real, believe me, well, let me in
Can't get around it and you can't run away
I need a miracle every day
[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
I need a woman about twice my weight
A ton of fun who packs a gun with all her other freight
Find her in a sideshow, leave her in L.A
Ride her like a surfer riding on a tidal wave

[Chorus]
It's real, believe me today, oh yeah
One more thing that I got to say
I need a miracle every day
It takes dynamite to get me up
Too much of everything is just enough
One more thing that I just got to say
(I need a miracle every day)

[Outro]
I need a miracle every day (Every day)
I need a miracle every day (Must have a miracle)
I need a miracle every day (Some kind of miracle)
I need a miracle, I need a miracle (I need a miracle)
I need a miracle every day (I need a miracle)
I need a miracle every day (I need a miracle)
I need a miracle every day (I need a miracle)
I need a miracle, I need a miracle
[Instrumental]
