Heroin |
I don’t know just where I’m going |
But I’m goin' to try for the kingdom if I can |
'Cause it makes me feel like I’m a man |
When I put a spike into my vein |
Then I tell you things aren’t quite the same |
When I’m rushing on my run |
And I feel just like Jesus' son |
And I guess I just don’t know |
And I guess that I just don’t know |
I have made very big decision |
I’m goin' to try to nullify my life |
'Cause when the blood begins to flow |
When it shoots up the dropper’s neck |
When I’m closing in on death |
You can’t help me not you guys |
All you sweet girls with all your sweet talk |
You can all go take a walk |
And I guess I just don’t know |
And I guess I just don’t know |
I wish that I was born a thousand years ago |
I wish that I’d sailed the darkened seas |
On a great big clipper ship |
Going from this land here to that |
I put on a sailor’s suit and cap |
Away from the big city |
Where a man cannot be free |
Of all the evils in this town |
And of himself and those around |
Oh, and I guess I just don’t know |
Oh, and I guess I just don’t know |
Heroin, be the death of me |
Heroin, it’s my wife and it’s my life |
Because a mainer to my vein |
Leads to a center in my head |
And then I’m better off than dead |
When the smack begins to flow |
Then I really don’t care anymore |
About all the Jim-Jims in this town |
And everybody putting everybody else down |
And all of the politicians makin' crazy sounds |
All the dead bodies piled up in mounds, yeah |
Wow, that heroin is in my blood |
And the blood is in my head |
Yeah, thank God that I’m good as dead |
Ooohhh, thank your God that I’m not aware |
And thank God that I just don’t care |
And I guess I just don’t know |
And I guess I just don’t know |
