Thirty days Lord, and thirty nights
I'm comin' home on an airplane flight
Mamma'll be waitin' at the ticket line
Tell me son, why do you stand there and cry
'Cause the needle and the spoon, 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
Sudden darkness couldn't help my head they said
You better quit son, before you're dead
Put the needle, put the spoon, put the trip to the moon
We're gonna take you away Lord gonna take you away
There was a needle and a 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 and need it someday
Don't mess with a needle or spoon
Or any trip to the moon
They'll take you away Lord, they're gonna bury you boy
Don't mess with a needle, now I know I know
