Cocaine Blues

Lyrics for Cocaine Blues

Every time me and my baby we go uptown Police come and they knock me down Cocaine run all 'round my brain Yeah baby, come here quick This old cocaine 'bout to make me sick Cocaine run all 'round my brain Yonder come my baby, dressed in red She's got a shot-gun, says she's gonna kill me dead Cocaine run all 'round my brain Cocaine run all 'round my brain Early one morning, half past four Cocaine knocking at my door Cocaine run all 'round my brain You take Mary, I'll take Sue Ain't no difference betwixt the two Cocaine run all 'round my brain Yeah baby, come here quick This old cocaine 'bout to make me sick Cocaine... Started down Beale Street and I'm turnin' up Main Lookin' for a gal who sells cocaine Cocaine run all 'round my brain Cocaine run all 'round my brain Well, I reached into my pocket, grabbed my poke Note in my pocket says no more coke Cocaine run all 'round my brain Mm hmm mm hmmm Cocaine run all 'round my brain Cocaine's for horses, not for men They tell me it'll kill me but they don't say when Cocaine run all 'round my brain Yeah baby, come here quick This old cocaine 'bout to make me sick Cocaine run all 'round my brain
