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...
