An' my belly is cravin', I got a in my head I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were If I lived tomorrow it's gonna be a long time For I'll reel and fall and rise on codine An' it's real, an' real, one more time
When I was a young man I learned not to Wild whiskey in front an' I often did My and father said, "Whiskey is a curse But the fate of baby, is a many times worse" An' it's real, an' it's real, one more
You'll forget your woman, forget about the man Try it just once, an' you'll try it sometimes you wonder and it's sometimes you think That I'm a-livin' my with abandon to drink An' it's real, an' real, one more time
Stay away from the cities, stay from the towns Stay away from the men pushin' the codine Stay from the stores where the remedy is found I live a few days as a slave to codine An' it's real, an' real, one more time
An' my belly is cravin', I've got a shakin' in my An' I've started heatin' oh, my body has said Stab with the grains of cocaine An' end up dead or you'll end up insane An' it's real, an' it's real, one more
An' my belly is cravin', I've got a in my head I feel like I'm dyin' an' I I were dead If I lived till tomorrow it's gonna be a time For I'll reel and I'll fall and up on codine An' it's real, an' it's real, one time An' real, an' it's real, one more time
