The Needle and the Spoon Lyrics
Great song. Along that same line of other Skynyrd songs. "Don't get involved with this, it'll do you in." Case in point: Saturday Night Special, Poison Whiskey, That Smell."
"I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool, But then again, lord I've seen a lot of fools"
my motto
heroin ?
another great skynard song. surprised on the number of comments. i think its about how he's lost so many of his friends to drugs. Kind of hipicritical for skynard to be writing antidrug songs though.
@Skynyrd boy, hipi-whatical??

that's the thing about drugs you can't hate them and still not be able to get away from them. favorite skynyrd tune.
Agree with the other posters. Anti-drugs. Love the line:- "I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool But then again I've seen a lot of fools" How very true.
Yeah well skynyrd used drugs but I'm pretty sure they never messed with smack. It wasn't mentioned in their bio. An awesome song with a good message and a wonderful solo by Alan. The live version is best.
this song is not specifically about heroin, it's more of a "Slow down before youre dead, Rockstar." song.
haha it's definitely heroin, "the needle and the spoon"
They weren't exactly subtle about it.
It is about lynyrd skynyrd telling american society about how they dont do heroin (only everything else) And yes its about heroin, no its not about any other drug.
