Cocaine Blues Live at the Old Quarter by Townes Van Zandt Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cocaine, cocaine
'Round my heart and runnin' 'round my brain
Cocaine, ah you ole cocaine

[Verse 2]
I woke up this mornin', Lord, I had a hunger pain
And all I want for breakfast is my good cocaine
Cocaine, ah you ole cocaine

[Verse 3]
Jump out of bed, mama, run downtown
Take along your money and look all around
Find a man, the man that sells cocaine

[Instrumental Verse]

[Verse 4]
Come here, mama, come here quick
That ole coke's got me and I'm feelin' sick
Cocaine, ah you ole cocaine
[Verse 5]
Get out of here, mama, I thought you understood
You got no connections then you're no damn good
Cocaine

[Verse 6]
Well, coke's for horses, Lord, it ain't for men
They say it kills you, but they don't say when
Cocaine

[Instrumental Verse]

[Verse 7]
Well come on, mama, let's rent us a boat
We'll sail down that Gibraltar moat
Shed a tear every time we pass Tangiers

[Verse 1]
Cocaine, cocaine
'Round my heart and runnin' 'round my brain
Cocaine, ah, you ole cocaine
