Methamphetamine Songtext

von Son Volt

Played with 2 fret capo G, D, C, E, D

Took the night shift to rub a nickel on a dime
V1:
Try to play it straight make it different this time
Still waitin to meet the next ex wife
It's either watchin these gauges for Monsanto
Or a bar back job at the casino
The army won't want me after what this body's been through.
[Chorus]
Won't you take me back to North Carolina, won't you take me back to Arkansas
Blissful days, there, I remember, Methanfedamine was the final straw
V2:
Had a killer job in a back up band, palyin guitar in Branson
Two shows a night brought the money to chase down sin
Just another weekend lonely at home, late night TV evangelist drone
I'm healthy now, I really don't know if I'll ever be free
Repeat chorus
