Cocaine Carolina Lyrics

Morning found me lyin' on
A floor in New Orleans,
Looking like the patches was
About to eat my jeans
Feeling like my belly was
A warehouse for the blues
And I sure miss my sweet Cocaine Carolina
Met her on an oceanliner,
Called her Cocaine Carolina
She was quite a lady then
And I was twenty two
God knows how much I adored her
I just never could afford her
Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?

So goodbye Cocaine Carolina
You and I are through
I'm going back to Sandy Scag
She knows just what to do
She don't love me for my money
She just wants my body, honey
Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?
Oh someone said if I was lucky
I could go back to Kentucky
Lexington was famous for
Its bluegrass and its hills
Carolina we should get up
Don't you know we'll have to split up
Maybe I should go to California
So goodbye Cocaine Carolina
You and I are through
I'm going back to Sandy Scag
She knows just what to do
She don't love me for my money
She just wants my body, honey
Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you?

Oh goodbye Cocaine Carolina...
Oh goodbye Cocaine Carolina...
