The Needle & The Spoon (Live)

This song has been covered by Law and Order under the title The Needle And The Spoon

Thirty days

Lord and thirty nights

I'm comin' home on an airplane flight

Mama waitin' at the ticket line

Tell me son why do you stand there cryin'

It was the needle and the spoon

And a trip to the moon

Took me away

Took me away

I've been feelin' so sick inside

Got to get better

Lord before I die

Seven doctors couldn't help my head

They said

You better quit

Son before you're dead

Quit the needle

Quit the spoon

Quit the trip to the moon

We're gonna take you away

Lord

We're gonna take you away

It was the needle and the spoon

I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool

But then again

Lord I've seen a lot of fools

Well

I hope you people

Lord can hear what I say

You'll have your chance to hit it some day

Don't mess with the needle or a spoon

Or any trip to the moon

It'll take you away

Lord

They're gonna bury you boy

Don't mess with the needle

Now I know
