Heroin

I don't know just where I'm goingBut I'm gonna try for the kingdom, if I can'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a manWhen I put a spike into my veinAnd I'll tell ya, things aren't quite the sameWhen I'm rushing on my runAnd I feel just like Jesus' sonAnd I guess that I just don't knowAnd I guess that I just don't knowI have made the big decisionI'm gonna try to nullify my life'Cause when the blood begins to flowWhen it shoots up the dropper's neckWhen I'm closing in on deathAnd you can't help me now, you guysAnd aYou can all go take a walkAnd I guess that I just don't knowAnd I guess that I just don't knowI wish that I was born a thousand years agoI wish that I'd sail the darkened seas. On a great big clipper shipGoing from this land here to thatIn a sailor's suit and capAway from the big cityWhere a man can not be freeOf all of the evils of this townAnd of himself, and those aroundOh, and I guess that I just don't knowOh, and I guess that I just don't knowHeroin, be the death of meHeroin, it's my wife and it's my lifeBecause a mainer to my veinLeads to a center in my headAnd then I'm better off and deadBecause when the smack begins to flowI really don't care anymoreAbout all the Jim-Jim's in this townAnd all the politicians makin' crazy soundsAnd everybody puttin' everybody else downAnd all the dead bodies piled up in mounds'Cause when the smack begins to flowThen I really don't care anymoreAh, when the heroin is in my bloodAnd that blood is in my headThen thank God that I'm as good as deadThen thank your God that I'm not awareAnd thank God that I just don't careAnd I guess I just don't knowAnd I guess I just don't know

Sweet Jane

Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand,Jack is in his corset, and Janeis in her vest, and, me,I'm in a rock'n'roll band. Huh!Ridin' in a Stutz-Bearcat, JimY'know, those were different times!Oh, all the poet, they studied rules of verse,And the ladies, they rolled their eyes.Sweet Jane! Whoa! Sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!I'll tell you something,Jack, he is a banker,And Jane, she is a clerk.Both of them save their monies, ha,And when, when they come home from work!Ooh! Sittin' down by the fire, oh!The radio does play, The classical music there, Jim."The March of the Wooden Soldiers".All you protest kids.You can hear Jack say, get ready, ah,Sweet Jane! Come on baby! SweetJane! Oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!Some people, they like to go out dancing,And other peoples, they have towork. Just watch me now!And there's even some evil mothers,Well they're gonna tell you thateverything is just dirt.Y'know that, women, never really faint,And that villains always blink their eyes, woo!And that, y'know, children arethe only ones who blush!And that, life is, just to die!And, everyone who ever had a heart, oh,That wouldn't turn around and break it.And anyone who ever played a part, whoa,And wouldn't turn around and hate it!Sweet Jane! Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Jane!Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.
