Heroin

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 sailor's suit and cap Away from the big city Away from the big city [Verse 2] Where a man cannot be free Of all the evils in this town And of himself and those around And I'm closin' in on death And I guess that I just don't know And I guess that I just don't know [Chorus] Ah - Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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) Ow, ow, ow, ow, yeah Ow, ow, ow, ow (I can feel it) (I can feel it) [Verse 4] I have made a very big decision I'm 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 'Cause when the blood begins to flow And it shoots up the dropper's 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 [Chorus] 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, yow! Heroin (Smack attack) (I can feel it) (I can feel it) (Smack attack) (Smack attack) (Smack attack) Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine (Heroin) Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine (Heroin) (Smack attack) Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine (Heroin) I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins But not mine (Heroin) (Smack attack) [Outro] "Don't touch that needle" V.R. (Heroin) V.R. (Heroin) V.R. (Heroin) V.R. (Heroin) Yeah, yeah, yeah… (Smack attack) (Smack attack) And I'm closin' in on death (Smack attack) (Heroin)
