Cod'ine - Lost Goat
Written by：Buffy Sainte Marie
And my belly is craving
I got a shakin' in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' and
I wish I was dead
If I lived till tomorrow
That'll be a long time
'Cause I'll reel and I'll fall
And rise on cod'ine
And it's real
And it's real one more time
When I was a young girl
I learned not to care
Whiskey and from it
I often did swear
My mother and father said
Whiskey's a curse
But the fate of their baby was
A many times worse
And it's real
And it's real one more time
Stay away from the cities
Stay away from the towns
Stay away from the men pushin'
The cod'ine around
Stay away from the stores
Where the remedy is fine
For better your pain than
Be caught on cod'ine
And it's real and it's real one more time
You'll forget you're a woman
You'll forget about men
Try it just once and you'll try it again
You'll forget about life
You'll forget about time
And you'll live off your days
As a slave to cod'ine
And it's real
And it's real one more time
But if I die tomorrow still
One thing I've done
I'd heeded the warning
That I got when I was young
My one satisfaction it comes
When I think
That I'm living my life
Without bendin' to drink
And it's real
And it's real one more time
