I don't know just where I'm going I'm gonna try for the kingdom, if I can 'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man When I put a spike into my vein And I tell you things aren't quite the same When I'm rushing on my run And I feel just like Jesus's son And I guess that I just don't know And I guess that I just don't know ♪ I have made big decision I'm gonna try to nullify my life 'Cause when the blood begins to flow When it shoots up the dropper's neck When I'm closing in on death ♪ You can't help me now, you guys All you girls with your sweet talk You can all go take a walk And I guess I just don't know And I guess I just don't know ♪ I wish that I was born a thousand years ago I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas On a great big clipper ship Going from this land here to that In a sailor's suit and cap ♪ Away from the big city Where a man cannot be free Of the evils of this town And of himself and those around And I guess I just don't know And I guess I just don't know ♪ Heroin, be the death of me Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life Because a mainer to my vein Leads to a center in my head And then I'm better off than dead ♪ Because when the smack begins to flow Then I really don't care anymore About all the Jim-Jims in this town And all the politicians making crazy sounds And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds And everybody putting everybody else down ♪ Wow, that heroin is in my blood And the blood is in my head Yeah, thank God that I'm good as dead And thank God that I'm not aware And thank God that I just don't care And I guess that I just don't know And I guess that I just don't know
