Thirty days, Lord and thirty nights   I'm comin' home on an airplane flight   Mama waitin' at the ticket line   "Tell me son why do you stand there cryin'?"      It was the needle and the spoon   And a trip to the moon   Took me away, took me away      I've been feelin' so sick inside   Got to get better, Lord before I die   Seven doctors couldn't help my head, they said   "You better quit, son before you're dead"      Quit the needle, quit the spoon   Quit the trip to the moon   We're gonna take you away   Lord, we're gonna take you away      It was the needle and the spoon      I've seen a lot of people who thought they were cool   But then again, lord I've seen a lot of fools   Well, I hope you people, Lord can hear what I say   You'll have your chance to hit it some day      Don't mess with the needle or a spoon   Or any trip to the moon   It'll take you away      Lord, they're gonna bury Your boy   Don't mess with the needle   Now I know
