[00:20.03]And my belly's cravin', I got a shakin' in my head
[00:27.80]I feel like I'm dyin' and I wish I were dead
[00:35.13]If I live till tomorrow, it's gonna be a long time
[00:42.40]For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise up on codeine
[00:47.12]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[00:57.83]When I was a young man, I learned not to care
[01:05.14]While whiskey in fronted, I often did swear
[01:12.54]My mother and father said whiskey's a curse
[01:19.61]But the fate of their baby is many a times worse
[01:24.26]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[01:34.48]You'll forget your woman, you'll forget about the man
[01:42.56]Try it just once and you'll try it again
[01:49.59]And sometimes you wonder and sometimes you think
[01:56.77]That I'm livin' my life without bendin' to drink
[02:03.15]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[02:37.08]Stay away from the cities, stay away from the towns
[02:44.64]Stay away from the men pushin' the codeine around
[02:51.72]Stay away from the stores where the remedy is found
[02:59.02]Or you'll live out your days as a slave to codeine
[03:05.38]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[03:17.97]And my belly's cravin', I got a shakin' in my head
[03:25.64]And I've started heedin' what my buddy said
[03:33.06]Stab yourself with the grains of cocaine
[03:40.45]And you'll end up dead or you'll end up insane
[03:44.84]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[03:52.70]And my belly's cravin', I got a shakin' in my head
[04:00.56]I feel like I'm dyin' and I wish I were dead
[04:07.51]If I live till tomorrow, it's gonna be a long time
[04:15.07]For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise up on codeine
[04:21.84]And it's real, and it's real one more time
[04:28.68]And it's real, and it's real one more time
