        I don't know just where I'm going
        But I'm gonna try for the kingdom if I can
        'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
        When I put a spike into my vein
        Then I tell you things aren't quite the same
        When I'm rushing on my run
        And I feel just like Jesus' son
        And I guess that I just don't know
        And I guess that I just don't know

        I have made big decision
        I'm gonna try to nullify my life
        'Cause when the blood begins to flow
        When it shoots up the dropper's neck
        When I'm closing in on death

  D             G

        And you can't help me, not you guys
        Or all you sweet girls with all your sweet talk
        You can all go take a walk
        And I guess I just don't know
        And I guess that I just don't know

        I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
        I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas
        On a great big clipper ship
        Going from this land here to that
        Ah, in a sailor's suit and cap

        Away from the big city
        Where a man cannot be free
        Of all the evils of this town
        And of himself and those around
        Oh, and I guess that I just don't know
        Oh, and I guess that I just don't know

        Heroin, be the death of me
        Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life, ha-ha
        Because a mainer to my vein
        Leads to a center in my head
        And then I'm better off than dead

        Because when the smack begins to flow
        I really don't care anymore
        About all the Jim-Jims in this town
        And all the politicians making crazy sounds
        And everybody putting everybody else down
        And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds

        'Cause when the smack begins to flow
        Then I really don't care anymore

        Ah, when that heroin is in my blood, hah
        And that blood is in my head
        Man thank God that I'm good as dead
        And thank your God that I'm not aware
        And thank God that I just don't care
        And I guess that I just don't know
        Oh, and I guess that I just don't know
