Townes Van Zandt

Cocaine

Everytime my baby and me go up town

police come and they knock me down

Cocaine all around my brain

Hey baby, better come here quick.

This old cocaine is making me sick.

Cocaine all around my brain.

Yonder comes by baby, she's dressed in red

She's got a shot-gun, says she's gonna kill me dead.

Cocaine all around my brain

Hey baby, better come here quick.

This old cocaine is making me sick.

Cocaine all around my brain.

Early one morning, half past four

cocaine came knockin' on my door.

Cocaine all around my brain

Hey baby, you better come here quick.

This old cocaine is making me sick.

Cocaine all around my brain.

Cocaine's for horses and it's not for men

Doctor said it kill you, but he don't say when.

Cocaine all around my brain.

Hey baby, you better come here quick.

This old cocaine is making me sick.

Cocaine all around my brain.
