Lyrics Gillian Welch

Gillian Welch

My Morphine

I've looked around

Been all up and downI never wasted time

On two or three

There's only one girl for me

There was a time

She used to treat me fineBut lately she's been acting

Awful stone

Makes her man

Weep and moan

CHORUS:

I-dee-oh-lay-e-tee

Idle-liddle-lodle-lay-e-oh-oh-oh-tee

I-dee-oh-lay-e-tee

Lay-e-tee

Diddle-odle-lay-e-tee

My Morphine will be

The death of me

You should have seen

Me and my Morphine

When we used to

Go dancing in the war

Spin me right off the floor

CHORUS yodel....

My Morphine will be

The death of me

Morphine Morphine

What made you so mean

You never used to

Do me like you do

Where's that sweet gal I knew

CHORUS yodel...

My Morphine will be

The death of me

My Morphine
