Some people laugh in the dark
Some people cry alone
Some people talk without sayin' a thing
And everything turns out gloomy
Some people count your money
Someone is countin' your days
And somebody got to keep track of your mind
When everything turns out gloomy
Brothers'll make you look sideways
Fathers'll make you look back
And when you're done talking
You still got to shoot
'Cause everything turns out gloomy
Mmhmm
Mmhmm
Some people cry alone
Some people talk without sayin' a thing
And everything turns out gloomy
Some people count your money
Someone is countin' your days
And somebody got to keep track of your mind
When everything turns out gloomy
Brothers'll make you look sideways
Fathers'll make you look back
And when you're done talking
You still got to shoot
'Cause everything turns out gloomy
Mmhmm
Mmhmm

I don't think you're right. Creedence Clearwater Revival have never made "drug songs". The bluesy sound of this song is inspired by John Fogerty's fantasies about "The Grand Old Southland" (Louisiana), just like the whole "Creedence Clearwater Revival"-album, or also the song Born On The Bayou.
