Cocaine And Ashes Lyrics - American Central Dust - Son Volt

I've had strychnine, I thought I was dead 

I snorted my father and I'm still alive 

I did it because that's how it is done 

I'm the same as everyone, just kinda lucky 

Body and soul, cocaine and ashes 

We'll get to that place in time 

Just tears and blow on my mind 

It's no to way of life but I've tried everything once 

I have no pretensions of immortality 

But I've been told I had 6 months to live 

But I've outlasted them all 

Body and soul, cocaine and ashes 

We'll get to that place in time 

Just tears and blow on my mind 

Senses and spirit, mourning and misery 

Addiction is something I should know something about 

Whatever gets done I know that I'll be blamed 

But they say the king is the man who can 

Body and soul, cocaine and ashes 

We'll get to that place in time 

Just tears and blow on my mind 

Body and soul, cocaine and ashes 

We'll get to that place in time 

Just tears and blow on my mind 

Body and soul, cocaine and ashes 

We'll get to that place in time 

Just tears and blow on my mind
