| Lyrics: | An' my belly is craving, I got shakin' in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were
dead
If I lived till tomorrow it's gonna be a long time
For I'll reel and I'll fall and
rise on codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
When I was a young man I
learned not to care
Wild whiskey, confronted I often did swear
My mother and father said
whiskey is a curse
But the fate of their baby is many times worse
An' it's real, an' it's
real, one more time
You'll forget your woman, you'll forget about man
Try it just
once, an' you'll try it again
It's sometimes you wonder and it's sometimes you think
That
I'm a-living my life with abandon to drink
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more
time
Stay away from the cities, stay away from the towns
Stay away from the men
pushin' the codine around
Stay away from the stores where the remedy is found
I will live
a few days as a slave to codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
An' my
belly is craving, I've got a shakin' in my head
An' I've started heating whether my body
said
Steady yourself with the grains of cocaine
An' you'll end dead or you'll end up
insane
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
An' my belly is craving, I got
shaking in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were dead
If I lived till tomorrow
it's gonna be a long time
For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise on codine
An' it's real,
an' it's real, one more time
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
Tangerine
Eyes
Please darling Tangerine Eyes sing a song for me,
One that I can hear all the
day.
Oh and please darling Tangerine Eyes kiss my hand at dawn
By the bright and yellow
corn of your hair.
Like a picture of the golden sunset you can make it real,
You
know just how I feel all the time.
So please darling Tangerine Eyes whisper to the
wind
We'll leave the rain behind and walk away.
We walk along the lonesome shoreline
listening to the sea,
Talking to you and me about the sky
And we know even as we walk that
way before the dawn
Our footsteps will be gone far away.
The seagulls ride the winds
for you, can't you hear them cry,
Can't you hear them sigh out your name?
Oh please
darling Tangerine Eyes sing a song for me
One that I can hear
So I feel alright
In
the big start studded night of my dreams |
