roky erickson - heroin lyrics

part i

i don’t know just where i’m going anymore
but i’m gonna try
for the kingdom if i can
because it makes me feel like man when i put a spike into my veins
i tell you that things aren’t quite the same
when i’m rushing on my runs you know i feel just like jesus’ son
and i guess that i don’t just know
and i guess that i just don’t know
heroin
be the death of me
i have made a decision
and i’m gonna try
to nullify my life
because when the smack begins to flow
you know i really don’t care anymore about all the tension in this town
and everybody putting everybody else down
and all the politicians making crazy sounds
and all the body dead bodies piling up in town
and i guess that i don’t just know
and i guess that i just don’t know
heroin
you know this is my wife and it’s my life
cause when that heroin’s in my blood
and it rushes through my head
i thank god that i’m good as dead
and i thank god that i’m not aware
and i 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
(very long solitic pause (caesura)
part ii

i wish that i was born a thousand years ago
i wish that i was on a great big clipper ship
going to this land and to that
then i’d put on a sailor suit and cap
she sits on a lofty perch
her favorite color is red
and since her birth i am alive, i am not dead
i am her hero, she is my heroin
i am her hero, she is my heroin
i am her hero, she is my heroin
i am her hero, she is my heroin
heroin herrrooooooiinnn
