The Peoples Drug — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

Got a stupid job, but its fair money

Got a brand new car but I cant drive

Ive got a sweetheart, I call her honey

And Ive also got a wife

People say that theyre depressed

But they go out, theyre so well dressed

What is it that makes them feel that way?

Cant get it in no drug store

No mans an island, thats for sure

And it looks like the world just ran out of things to say



So, give me some of the peoples drug

Give me some of the peoples drug

Whatever makes you feel that good

Ill take it like I know I should

So, give me some of the people, peoples drug

Give me some of the peoples drug





Pick me up and take me to a movie

Give me an ending that I can understand

Sell me a rocking soundtrack, make it groovy

Give me backstage passes to the band

People always whine whine whine

Shut up and pay the fine fine fine

Whats the difference anyway

Beteween being safe and being rad

When the big joke is weve all been had

You wont get to read the news in usa today





(chorus)





God, its a whacky race were running

And I must atone for all my sins

God grant me some of what youre giving

Heard you dont need needles, dont need pins

Ill pay prescription wheres the bill

I thought it was a bitter pill

But whats it matter what I feel

Take the dog and take the wife

Shoe me how to life the life

The price you people pay well its gotta be a steal





(chorus)
