Some folks like water

Some folks like wine

But I like the taste

Of straight strychnine (hey, hey)



You may think it's funny

That I like this stuff

But once you've tried it

You can't get enough (Wow!)



Wine is red

Poison is blue

Strychnine is good

For what's ailin' you



(guitar solo)

(repeat bridge and fill)



If you listen to what I say

You'll try strychnine some day

Make you jump, it'll make you shout

It'll even knock you out



[repeat verse 1]



Strychnine hey, hey
