Behold my name is heroin Know as the destroyer of man I'm a world power y'all know it's true Use me only once and you will know it too
I make a good schoolboy forget his books Make a world famous beauty forget her looks Take some money from the rich and make him poor Take a foolish young maiden and make her a whore
I can turn your life into a drag Make a virgin sell her virtue for a 5-dollar-beg Make a good husband forget his wife Send a greedy man to prison for all his life
So run if you want,I shall not chase As soon as I'm Heroin, you'll come for your taste And once in the dropper, you want think me mean Praise me as master and nod in a dream
You're heard my warning but haven't paid heed So get your foot in the stir up and mount my speed Get tight in the saddle and ride her well For the white horse of heroin will take you to hell
