Intro

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

I wouldn’t mind a needle

I’ve just been on this road so long, oh boy

Been all around the world

Been all the way to Reno and parts of Californ

Been all the way down Reno and parts of Californ

I had some kind of luck there

Wished I never had been born, oh boy

Been all around the world

I went upon the signal hill

And there I made my stand

I went upon the signal hill

And there I made my stand

Bullets in my pocket

Semi-auto in my hand, oh boy

Been all around the world

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

I wouldn’t mind a needle

Just a-lying in a jail so long, oh boy

Been all around the world

Put me down into the chair

And then I close my eyes

They put me down into the chair

Then I closed my eyes

Last words that I remember

Won’t be long before you die, oh boy

Been all around the world

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

Put the needle in my arm

And I’ll be dead and gone

I wouldn’t mind a needle

Just a-lying in a grave so long, oh boy

Been all around the world
