    Here I lie in my hospital bed
    Tell me, sister morphine, when are you coming round again?
    Oh, I dont think I can wait that long
    Oh, you see that Im not that strong

    The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
    Tell me, sister morphine, how long have I been lying here?
    What am I doing in this place?
    Why does the doctor have no face?

    Oh, I cant crawl across the floor
    Ah, cant you see, sister morphine, Im trying to score

    Well it just goes to show
    Things are not what they seem
    Please, sister morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams
    Oh, cant you see Im fading fast?
    And that this shot will be my last

    Sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool cool hand on my head
    Ah, come on, sister morphine, you better make up my bed
    cause you know and I know in the morning Ill be dead
    Yeah, and you can sit around, yeah and you can watch all the
    Clean white sheets stained red.

    Well, when youre sitting there
    In your silk upholstered chair
    Talking to some rich folks that you know
    Well I hope you wont see me
    In my ragged company
    You know I could never be alone

    Take me down little susie, take me down
    I know you think youre the queen of the underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding
    And I wont forget to put roses on your grave

    Well, when youre sitting back
    In your rose pink cadillac
    Making bets on kentucky derby day
    Ill be in my basement room
    With a needle and a spoon
    And another girl to take my pain away

    Take me down little susie, take me down
    I know you think youre the queen of the underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding
    And I wont forget to put roses on your grave

    Take me down little susie, take me down
    I know you think youre the queen of the underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the us mail
    Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
    And I wont forget to put roses on your grave
    No I wont forget to put roses on your grave

    ou can catch it if you want to ride
    Don't you worry if it pass you by
    You can catch it if you want to ride
    Don't you worry if it pass you by

    Lord you know the reason why
    On this train till I die
    Train I ride goes to God knows where
    I don't know and I don't care

    Train I ride goes to God knows where
    I don't know and I don't care
    If you aint got money don't despair
    'Cause you don't have to pay no fare

    Please now brother don't you ride this train
    Ride the wrong rails, live your life in vain
    Please now brother don't you ride this train
    Ride the wrong rails, live your life in vain
