The Needle and the Spoon Live [Fox Theater 2001 DeLuxe Edition] Lyrics
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, 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 will take you away
Lord, they gonna bury you, boy
Don't mess with the needle
Now I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I'm comin' home on an airplane flight
Mama waitin' at the ticket line
Tell me, son, why do you stand there cryin'?
And a trip to the moon
Took me away, took me away
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 trip to the moon
We're gonna take you away, Lord, gonna take you away
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
Or any trip to the moon
It will take you away
Don't mess with the needle
Now I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
