Cold Turkey Lyrics
Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky
My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell
Oh, oh, oh, oh

This song is awesome, but it would make an excellent remake!

There's a pretty good one by Lenny Kravitz on Youtube too. Such a great track - wonderful guitar licks.

It's about kicking the heroin habit.

No shit, Sherlock.
No shit, Sherlock.
It amazes me how heroin can inspire so many songs.
The acoustic version of this song rips it up. The one with the Plastic Ono Band is okay, but it's much better raw with just a lone guitar.
obviously about withdrawel from drugs or alcohol...i think it's about john's own experience so then it probably is drugs
Ive always wondered what the end lyrics look like wrote down. Id spell em huh huh waaaaaaaauuu uu uu uu ar no no nononono ah huh uh ah huh uh ahah arrrrggg rrrrr!!! uhhhh!!!! rrrrrrrrrrrr!
This song is amazing, the original one is kinda poppy.
....compared to the acoustic version.
I haven't heard the acoustic version! Detective! You're kinda funny, but I agree! I think my beloved John Lennon got crazy at the end of the song!
pJ ;p
the end sort of freaks me out. But it's pretty cool I guess
