A little cocaine


Lee Clayton

G				   Em
After two years of thinking about you
   G				      Em
I heard you were looking for me
            G			          Em	
And I drove day and night just to be by your side
    Am			   D
I wanted you so desperately
           G			   Em
And I found you in a sleezy apartment
G			Em
acting kind of strange
              Am			 C
As you said could you give me cigarette 
	         D	   G	   
or maybe a hit of cocaine


Well God I just wanted to hold you
to touch you and eat you alive
I remembered the taste and smell of your skin
and the way that you felt inside
But you said let's go down and see Big John
I hear he just got a plane
It might be nice to see him
and maybe he'll have some cocaine
 
Well I said that I must do some business
a late night radio show
and you know when you are trying to make it these days
it just a part of the road
so you said let's meet at eleven
and you kissed me goodbye in the rain
and whispered I love you my darling
maybe I'll bring some cocaine

I came back to you after midnight
and the lights and the music were on
and I knocked and I knew you were dancing in there
but for me there was no one at home
I cursed and cried this is crazy, 
dammit, that woman's insane
but I said to myself I've been stupid
over something like a little cocaine


There is a place and a time that I'll see you 
We'll drink somemore rose wine 
but this time I'll come to you just as a friend
not a man with a woman on his mind
That moment is gone forever 
and the chance to heal some pain
and you blew it babe, yes you blew it babe
for a few lousy lines of cocaine
and you blew it babe, yes you blew it babe
and I wouldn't have done you the same
