Shrink tells me I ain’t crazy
But I ain’t seen my mind this week
Tryin’ to tell my body I ain’t killin myself
But my broken heart just won’t speak
A little magic powder on the old brown spoon
Just to set my shakin’ hand straight
Cookin’ up a high but I’ll be comin’ down soon
I been dancing with the devil, no mistake
Well I’ve been wakin’ to the same old story
With the pages just a little more frayed
I’ve been puttin’ my luck to a loaded dice
reality looks better through a haze
A little magic powder on the old brown spoon
Just to set my shakin’ hand straight
Cookin’ up a high but I’ll be comin’ down soon
I been dancing with the devil, no mistake
Playin’ this old blues guitar
Each note the same as the last
Dance my last dance to the same old tune
Lookin’ at the same old photographs
A little magic powder on the old brown spoon
Just to set my shakin’ hand straight
Cookin’ up a high but I’ll be comin’ down soon
I been dancing with the devil, no mistake
