Whiskey got no hold on me
Heroin is the only thing
Left them chains in Tennessee
Don't come knockin' on my door
Cocaine cannot kill my pain
Guess you'd best leave me alone
At least until these blues have gone
Cocaine cannot kill my pain
'Cause cocaine cannot kill my pain
The only gift the darkness brings
Whiskey got no hold on me
Even that won't work no more
Guess you'd best leave me alone
Guess you'd best leave me alone
Whiskey got no hold on me
Heroin is the only thing
Now don't come knockin' on my door
Guess you'd best leave me alone
Like a freight train through my vein
Like a freight train through my vein
Girl, don't come knockin' on my door
Heroin is the only thing
'Cause heroin is the only thing
Cocaine cannot kill my pain
Cocaine cannot kill my pain
Now whiskey got no hold on me
Don't come knockin' on my door
