Miracle Drug

This whole world is makin' me mean
Oh Father Time, the endless fiend

His youngest daugher, she broke me in two
One's half a man, the other's a fool

But cocaine, like an achy heart
Is gonna kill ya, honey why'd you start

And all day you're just lookin for that miracle drug

Spent a day under the fruit tree
I've seen a lot of fruits, but none like these

Wait for them to fall on your head
Feelin sleepy, gettin close to death

But whiskey, like an achy heart
Is gonna kill me, honey why'd I start

And all day I'm just lookin for that miracle drug

Find me a river to jump into
Down at the bottom find a diamond like you

Hold my breath, true and well
Which way is up or down, I cannot tell

But that woman is gonna break your heart
And they try to warm ya, but you're gonna start, and then

All day you're just lookin for that miracle drug
