[Verse 1]
My heart was cold as ice, about twenty below, baby, yeah
I was sure the flame wouldn't burn no more, baby, yeah
I needed love like a vampire needed blood, baby, yeah
You put love in my veins where there used to be nothing but mud, oh, mhm

[Chorus]
Like a vampire in a horror movie
Girl, you gave me something groovy
Brought me back from the dead, baby
You gave me a new start
Like pulling a stake from my heart
Brought me back from the dead, baby
You brought me back from the dead, yeah

[Verse 2]
You gave me love, the kind I never had, ooh, baby
You made me strong as Frankenstein, girl, you know that I’m bad, oh
I was so dang hurt by the girl I loved before, oh, yeah
But all of that finished when you walked your fine self through that door, ooh, ooh, baby

[Chorus]
Like a vampire in a horror movie
Girl, you gave me something groovy
Brought me back from the dead, yeah, baby
You gave me a new start
When you put fire back in my heart
Brought me back from the dead, baby
You brought me back from the dead, yeah, baby

[Outro]
You gave me a new walk, you gave me a new talk
Brought me back from the dead, yeah, baby
Go out and pass the word that Bobby Byrd is back from the dead, yeah, baby
I'm back, back, I'm back, I’m back, I'm back, back
I'm back from the dead, yeah, baby
