Amphetamine Annie (Live) Lyrics
This is a song with a message
I want you to heed my warning
I wanna tell you all a storyAbout this chick I know
They call her "Amphetamine Annie"
She`s always shovelling snow
I sat her down and told her
I told her crystal clear
"I don`t mind you getting high
But there`s one thing you should fear"
"Your mind might think its flying, baby
On those little pills
But you ought to know it`s dying, `cause
Speed kills"
But Annie kept on speeding
Her health was getting poor
She saw things in the window
She heard things at the door
Her mind was like a grinding mill
Her lips were cracked and sore
Her skin was turning yellow
I just couldn`t take it no more
She thought her mind was flying
On those little pills
She didn`t it was going down fast, `cause
Speed kills
Well I sat her down and told her
I told her one more time
"The whole wide human race has taken
Far too much methedrine"
She said "I don`t care what a Limey says,

I`ve got to get it on
I`m not here to just see no man
Who come from across the pond
She wouldn`t heed my warning
Lord, she wouldn`t hear what I said
Now she`s in the graveyard, and she`s
Awfully dead
