She's like heroin to me
She's like heroin to me
But now
I'm looking up and I'm crying, "I thought it was up to you!"
But, she will never know that she is there
Don't let her take her love to town they will never fill her heart
She cannot miss a vein
I know, because I'm like the Indian wind along the telegraph lines
And she's like heroin to me
She needs a passion like her father's used to be
She cannot miss a vein
So, I'm blowing back my trouble to the east
While we sit together sad like our fathers used to be
She's like heroin to me
She's like heroin to me
We sit together drunk like our fathers used to be
I know, because I'm like the train shooting down the mainline
I know my special rider, I can feel her in the dark
She feels like heroin to me
I guess that I'd be cool, but there's a tickle in my veins
I know a perfect run by the sleep it puts in my heart
I'm looking up and God is saying, "What are you gonna do?"
She's like heroin to me
She is like an eye-blue swimming pool
She feels like heroin to me
I cannot get a look at it
I've been a real good tombstone, but now I'm blowing away
So mainline it!
She's like heroin to me
