• Heroin

I don't know just where I'm going
But I'm going 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
Oh, 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 don't know
I decided a couple of things
But I know, but I'm going to try to give 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
Or all you sweet pretty girls
with all your sweet pretty talk
You can all go take a walk
And I guess I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
And I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas
On a great big clipper ship
Going from this land here to that
Put on a sailor's suit and cap

Away from the big city
Where a man cannot be free
Of all of the evils in this town
And of himself and those around
Oh, and I guess I just don't know
Oh, and I guess that 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

Because when the smack begins to flow
Oh then I really don't care anymore
About all your Jim-Jims in this town
And everybody putting everybody else down
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds
And all the politicians making crazy columns

Ah, while that heroin is in my blood
And that blood is in my head
Woh, then thank God that I'm good as dead
And thank 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 that I just don't know
