(Ronnie Van Zant -- Allen Collins)
|
Thirty days, lord and thirty nights
|
I'm comin' home on an airplane flight
|
Mama waitin' at the ticket line
|
Tell me son why do you stand there cryin'
|
|
It was the needle and the spoon
|
And a trip to the moon
|
Took me away, took me away
|
|
I've been feelin' so sick and tired
|
Got to get better, lord before I die
|
Seven doctors couldn't help my head, they said
|
You better quit, son before your dead
|
|
Quit the needle. Quit the spoon
|
Quit the trip to the moon
|
We gonna take you away. Lord, we gonna take you away
|
|
[Spoken:]
|
It was the needle and the spoon
|
|
I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool
|
But then again, lord I've seen a lot of fools
|
Well, I hope you people, lord can hear what I say
|
You'll have your chance to hit it some day
|
|
Don't mess with the needle or a spoon
|
Or any trip to the moon
|
It'll take you away
|
|
Lord, their gonna bury you boy
|
Don't mess with the needle
|
Now I know, I know, I know...
