Cocaine Man
14th of June 1912
I woke up feeling sprightly
Woke out of bed, thought, "Mama, ya done me proud"
Looked over the kitchen sink, thought, "Wow, that's my house"
I paid the mortgage, it's mine
Got up, cup of coffee, went down nice, didn't it?
Made me feel a bit moodkey
Then I stood up straight and proud, I knew I was a man
Thought, "Mama, ya done me proud"
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
So a car pulls up, and I go downstairs
I'm wearing my best trousers, I'm feeling happy
Sunlight was shining down
I'm wearing Topsham blue shoes, with a crisp lime trouser line
Beautiful it is, the day's beautiful too
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
Crash bang, when I meet her, she's beautiful, she is
She stands alone, not caring who's looking
Her name's Rebecca Trollop, and I fall right into her trap
Bang, it's disgusting
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
I woke up feeling sprightly
Woke out of bed, thought, "Mama, ya done me proud"
Looked over the kitchen sink, thought, "Wow, that's my house"
I paid the mortgage, it's mine
Got up, cup of coffee, went down nice, didn't it?
Made me feel a bit moodkey
Then I stood up straight and proud, I knew I was a man
Thought, "Mama, ya done me proud"
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
So a car pulls up, and I go downstairs
I'm wearing my best trousers, I'm feeling happy
Sunlight was shining down
I'm wearing Topsham blue shoes, with a crisp lime trouser line
Beautiful it is, the day's beautiful too
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
Crash bang, when I meet her, she's beautiful, she is
She stands alone, not caring who's looking
Her name's Rebecca Trollop, and I fall right into her trap
Bang, it's disgusting
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
We wear friendly smiles
All night
Get bladdered on Lucifer's grain
Pray it never stop
Here comes the cocaine man
Here comes a man
