Cocaine cannot kill my pain

Like a freight train through my vein

Cocaine cannot kill my pain



Whiskey got no hold on me

Left them chains in Tennessee

Whiskey got no hold on me



Don't come knockin' on my door

Even that won't work no more

Don't come knockin' on my door



Heroin is the only thing

The only gift the darkness brings

Heroin is the only thing



Guess you'd best leave me alone

At least until these blues have gone

Guess you'd best leave me alone
