Jesus, sweet Jesus
Don’t let me down
Or I’ll get high again
Don’t let him down or he’ll get high again
Tried 12 steps, 12 long steps
I only climbed 5
And I was high again
He only climbed 5 and was high again
Cocaine, Novacaine, cigarettes, barbituates, morphine, codeine, heroine
I can’t keep clean
Jesus, sweet Jesus
Don’t let me down
Or I’ll get high again
Don’t let him down or he’ll get high again
The judge gave me 40 days
I got out on bail
And got high again
He got out on bail and got high again
Cocaine, Novacaine, cigarettes, barbituates, morphine, codeine, alcohol
I’ve done it all
Jesus, sweet Jesus
Don’t let me down
or I’ll get high again
Don’t let him down or he’ll get high again
I bought some smack on the wrong side of the track
I took it all
I’ll never fly again
He took it all he’ll never fly again
Cocaine, Novacaine, cigarettes, barbituates, morphine, codeine, alcohol
I’ve done it all
