Heroin - Recorded Live in Akron October 23rd 1976

I don't know just where I'm going
But I'm goin' to try for the kingdom if I can
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put a spike into my vein
Then I tell you things aren't quite the same

When I'm rushing on my run
And I feel just like Jesus' son
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

I have made a very big decision
I'm goin' to try to nullify my life
'Cause when the blood begins to flow
And when it shoots up the dropper's neck
When I'm closing in on death

And you can't help me, not you guys
All you sweet pretty girls with all your ah, sweet pretty talk now
You can all go take a walk
And I guess I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas
With a great big clipper ship
Going from this land here to that
I put on a sailor's suit and cap

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 guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

Heroin, be the death of me
Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life
Because a mainer to my vein
Leads to a center in my head
And then I'm better off than dead
When the smack begins to flow
I really don't care anymore
About all the Jim-Jims in this town
And everybody putting everybody else down
And all of the politicians makin' crazy sounds
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds
Wow, that heroin is in my blood
And the blood is in my head
Thank God that I'm good as dead
Thank your God, I'm not aware
Thank God that I just don't care
And I guess I just don't know
And I guess I just don't know

Thank you very much
