The Afghan Whigs

The Afghan Whigs are an American rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio, originally active from 1986 to 2001. They have since reformed. At their peak, the group – with core members Greg Dulli (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick McCollum (lead guitar), and John Curley (bass), as well as various drummers (including Steve Earle and Michael Horrigan) – evolved into one of the leading groups of 1990s alternative rock, rising up around the grunge movement but ultimately transcending it.

Stay with me
Why don't you try to be my friend?
Why don't you try a little harder?
Open your arms, open your legs

Won't you try, try to open your mind
Baby, don't you open it up too far
Or your brains will fall out on the sidewalk
That we've walked together

I know what you're thinking about
And I understand, try

Okay now, seems that it's happened again
Don't let it smack you down the hallway
Like your husband did last night
Don't you cry, cry, cry little girl

But baby, let the freezing teardrop fall
Open your eyes and lie awake
Close your eyes and lie awake

Baby, I know what you're thinking about
And I understand
If you try to be your man, if you try

You maybe lost your mind
And you cry, cry
As if your fate were mine

Won't you stay with me?
Will you try to be my friend?
Open your arms, open your legs
Open your mind, open your mind

Baby, I know what you're thinking about
I understand
If you try to be your man
If you try to be your man
