Strychnine
Gerry Roslie
Some folks like water
Some folks like wine
But I like the taste
Of straight strychnine
You may think it's funny
That I like this stuff
But once you've tried it
You can't get enough
Wine is red
Poison is blue
Strychnine is good
For what's ailin' you
[Guitar lead]
Wine is red
Poison is blue
Strychnine is good
For what's ailin' you
If you listen to what I say
You'll try strychnine some day
Makes you jump, it'll make you shout
It might even knock you out
Some folks like water
Some folks like wine
But I like the taste
Of straight strychnine
Strychnine
(Hey! Hey!)
