Cocaine Carolina- Johnny Cash

                                            
Morning found me lyin' on a floor in New Orleans
                                                                      
Looking like the patches was about to eat my jeans
                                             
Feeling like my belly was a warehouse for the blues
                                                            
And I sure miss my sweet Cocaine Carolina


                                     
Better on an ocean liner, call the Cocaine Carolina
                                                                   
She was quite a lady then, and I was twenty-two
                                                       
God knows how much I adored her, I just never could afford her
                                                                 
Cocaine Carolina how did I get hooked on you


Chorus:
                                               
So goodbye Cocaine Carolina, you and I are through 
                                                                                    
I'm going back to Sandy Skag, she knows just what to do
                                                    
She don't love me for my money, she just wants my body honey
                                                                  
Cocaine Carolina, how did I get hooked on you


                                                 
Oh someone said if I was lucky, I could go back to Kentucky
                                                                       
Lexington was famous for its bluegrass and its hills
                                         
Carolina we should get up, don't you know we'll have to split up
                                                                 
Baby I should go to Californ-ia

Repeat chorus and fade
