Well, I wish, I was born a thousand years ago
|
|
And I wish that I sailed the darkened sea
|
|
On a great big clipper ship, goin' from this land into that
|
|
In a sailors suit and cap away from the big city, away from the big city
|
|
|
|
Where a man cannot be free
|
|
Of all the evils in this town
|
|
And of himself and those around
|
|
And I'm closing in on death
|
|
|
|
And I guess that I just don't know
|
|
And I guess that I just don't know
|
|
|
|
Ah, Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine
|
|
|
|
I don't know just where I'm goin', ah
|
|
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom if I can, yeah
|
|
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
|
|
When I put a spike into my vein
|
|
And I tell you, things aren't quite the same
|
|
It's a mainline to my pain
|
|
|
|
( I can feel it )
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
( I can feel it )
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
( I can feel it )
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
|
|
I have made a very big decision
|
|
I gonna try to nullify my life, you know
|
|
I get so low and then the smack flows
|
|
I don't care, I'm gonna make it my wife
|
|
|
|
Because when the blood begins to flow
|
|
And shoots up the droopers neck
|
|
And I'm closin' in on death, you can all go take a walk
|
|
And I guess that I just don't know
|
|
And I guess that I just don't know
|
|
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
( I can feel it )
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
|
|
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
Not mine, heroin, smack attack
|
|
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|
|
|

Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin
|

I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
|
|
But not mine, heroin, smack attack
|
|
|
|
Don't touch that needle
|
|
V.R., heroin, V.R., heroin, V.R., hell, heroin
|
|
(Forever)
|
|
And I'm closing in on death, heroin
