Dopesick Blues
It's five a.m. and the sun'll be risin' soon
There ain't a damn thing I can do
It's cold outside and I feel like I'm
Ready for the spring
Well, just to hear the morning sing
I woke up late this morning with my
Sheets all drenched in sweat
Just tryin' to get used to livin'
Endlessly in death
I spent the last few years just
Diggin' my own grave
Been suffering like a slave
Sufferin' like a
But, ooh baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and easy
Well, somebody told me once
You'll never leave me
Well, ooh baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and slow
'Cause I got nowhere else to
I got nowhere else to go
I got these scars on my arms
From
From sticking that needle in like
Well, I still don't see the reason why
I think it's about that time to
Check it in again
And you can easily see why
You can easily see
That.. Ooh, baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and easy
Cause, somebody told me once
You'd never leave me
Well, ooh baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and slow
'Cause I got nowhere else to
Now, all that fire inside your sky
Smeared into the ground
'Cause all my crushed past me like a
Stranger in a crowd
Them voices scream so loud
I get this feeling that all the fun's gone too
But here I am still runnin' on back to you
Well, I'm so tired of havin' these
Dopesick blues
How do I untie this noose?
How do I untie this
And, ooh baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and easy
Cause, somebody told me once
You'd never leave me
Well, ooh baby
Won't you take me down
Nice and slow
'Cause I got nowhere else to
I got nowhere else to go
