Sister Morphine Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
[Refrain 1]
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that I'm not that strong
[Verse 2]
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
[Bridge]
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Ah, can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score
[Verse 3]
Well it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams
[Refrain 3]
Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast?
And that this shot will be my last
[Verse 4]
Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool cool hand on my head
Ah, come on, Sister Morphine, you better make up my bed
[Refrain 4]

Because you know, and I know, in the morning I'll be dead
Yeah, and you can sit around, yeah and you can watch all the
Clean white sheets stained red
Hey
Yeah
