Howlin' for You
Howlin' Passion: Unraveling the Mystique of The Black Keys' Anthem
Lyrics
Alright
Expressing affirmation or agreement
Yeah
Another expression of agreement or acknowledgment
Well, now
Introduction or transition to a new statement
I must admit, I can't explain
Admission of inability to explain racing thoughts
Any of these thoughts racin' through my brain
Unable to articulate thoughts running through the mind
It's true
Confirmation of the previous statement's truth
But, baby, I'm howlin' for you
Expressing a strong desire or longing for someone
Alright
Reiteration of agreement or affirmation
There's something wrong with this plot
Suggesting a problem or issue with the situation
The actors here have not got
Observation about the people involved lacking understanding
A clue
Confirming the lack of awareness or comprehension
Baby, I'm howlin' for you
Restating the intense longing or yearning for someone
Da-da, da-da, da
Repetitive sounds, potentially used for emphasis or rhythm
Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Da-da, da-da, da
-Mockingbird, can't you see?
Comparing a situation to a mockingbird's influence
Little girl's got a hold on me
Describing someone's strong emotional grip on another
Like glue
Comparing the hold to being like glue
Baby, I'm howlin' for you
Reiterating the intense desire for someone
Yeah
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment
Throw the ball to the stick
Reference to playing fetch or a game involving throwing and catching
Swing and miss and a catcher's mitt
Describing a failed attempt or a miss in the game
Strike two
Reference to a strike in a baseball game
Baby, I'm howlin' for you
Reiterating the intense desire for someone
Yeah
Expressions of affirmation or agreement
Yeah
