The Needle And The Spoon - Ronnie VanZant, Allen Collins

    Thirty days, lord and thirty nights
    I'm comin' home on an airplane flight
    Mama waitin' at the ticket line
    Tell me son why do you stand there cryin'

    (chorus)
    It was the needle and the spoon
    And a trip to the moon
    Took me away, took me away

    I've been feelin' so sick and tired
    Got to get better, lord before I die
    Seven doctors couldn't help my head, they said
    You better quit, son before your dead

    (chorus)
    Quit the needle. Quit the spoon
    Quit the trip to the moon
    We gonna take you away. Lord, we gonna take you away

    (spoken)
    It was the needle and the 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 to hit it some day
    (chorus)
    Don't mess with the needle or a spoon
    Or any trip to the moon
    It'll take you away

    Lord, their gonna bury you boy
    Don't mess with the needle
    Now I know, I know, I know...
