Loading...

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
here i lie in my hospital bed
tell me, sister morphine, when are you coming round again?
oh, i don’t think i can wait that long
oh, you see that i’m not that strong

[verse 2]
the scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
tell me, sister morphine, how long have i been lying here?

[bridge]
what am i doing in this place?
why does the doctor have no face?
i tell ya, i can’t crawl across the floor
ah, can’t you see, sister morphine, i’m trying to score

[verse 3]
well it just goes to show
things are not what they seem
please, sister morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams
oh, can’t you see i’m fading fast?
and that this shot will be my last

[verse 4]
sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool cool hand on my head
ah, come on, sister morphine, you better make up my bed
because you know, and i know, in the morning i’ll be dead
yeah, and you can sit around, yeah and you can watch all the
clean white sheets stained red
c’mon now

[instrumental break]

[outro]
hey, yeah

[audience applause]

[spoken word: mick jagger]
oh okay, we got one. we haven’t done this one for a very long time. we got this one from the [?], dusted it off. this one called “live with me.”
