Cocaine Blues

Uncle Tupelo-inspired, alternative country lyrics

Ashley couldn't keep me happy
And stacey was much to plain
So i just fell
for a Southern Belle
And her name is cocaine

Why do i pay the rent
when a tent works just the same?
So I packed my bag
with a Mississippi flag
and headed for the Great Plain

My baby drove me crazy
and her daughter drove me insane
So I threw up the peace
said "Good Luck on the lease"
and hopped aboard Casey Jone's train

Well life on the road
is all I've ever knowed
So I grabbed my pad
said "F--- you!" to my dad
i had to leave before my weaknesses showed
