Son Volt - Cocaine and Ashes lyrics
rate meI've had strychnine, I thought I was dead<br />
I snorted my father and I'm still alive<br />
I did it because that's how it is done<br />
I'm the same as everyone, just kinda lucky<br />
<br />
Body and soul, cocaine and ashes<br />
We'll get to that place in time<br />
Just tears and blow on my mind<br />
<br />
It's no to way of life but I've tried everything once<br />
I have no pretensions of immortality<br />
But I've been told I had 6 months to live<br />
But I've outlasted them all<br />
<br />
Body and soul, cocaine and ashes<br />
We'll get to that place in time<br />
Just tears and blow on my mind<br />
<br />
Senses and spirit, mourning and misery<br />
Addiction is something I should know something about<br />
Whatever gets done I know that I'll be blamed<br />
But they say the king is the man who can<br />
<br />
Body and soul, cocaine and ashes<br />
We'll get to that place in time<br />
Just tears and blow on my mind<br />
<br />
Body and soul, cocaine and ashes<br />
We'll get to that place in time<br />
Just tears and blow on my mind<br />
<br />
Body and soul, cocaine and ashes<br />
We'll get to that place in time<br />
Just tears and blow on my mind<br /><br />
