If you want to hang out,
You've got to take her out, cocaine
If you want to get down,
Get down on the ground, cocaine
She don't lie,
She don't lie,
She don't lie, cocaine

If you got bad news,
You want to kick them blues, cocaine
When your day is done
And you want to run, cocaine
She don't lie,
She don't lie,
She don't lie, cocaine

If your thing is gone
And you want to ride on, cocaine
Don't forget this fact,
You can't get it back, cocaine
She don't lie,
She don't lie,
She don't lie, cocaine

She don't lie,
She don't lie,
She don't lie, cocaine

    General CommentAnyone going through the comments on nearly any song here will see comments saying, it's about drugs.

    Strangely not for this one -)

    It seems harder to be clear if it has a positive or negative view of cocaine. It hinges on how you interpret the last verse. I think often ambiguity is good!
