Cocaine, Bad for the soul, Good for music

[TheDudeAbides]

"Drivin that train, high on cocaine, Casey jones ya better watch your speed"
or
"Bales of cocaine, fallin from low flying plains"
Or
"It's alright, it's alright, it's alright....Cocaine."

Any other examples?

"Tweater and the monkey man were hard up for cash, stayed up all nite sellin cocaine and hash"

Where did you get that quote from? I just read a vintage hightimes interview with a top(anonymous) smuggler. He said that's what they did at first, drop the stuff out of planes in the desert, and sometimes they wouldn't find any of it!

Well anyway, I thought I'd add that White Lines is one of the best songs ever!

Fun, baby

Freeze! Rock-Rock-Rock-Rock-Rock-Rock-Rock-Rock!
(High... High... High... High...) Rrrrrrrrruh!
Bass!
(Oooh White...White) 3X

Verse One:

(Ooooh...White Lines) Vision dreams of passion
(Blowin through my mind) And all the while I think of you
(Pipe cries) A very strange reaction
(For us to unwind) The more I see the more I do
(Something like a phenomenon) Baby
(Tellin your body to come along, but white lines...blow away)
(Blow! Rock it! Blow!)

Ticket to ride white line highway
Tell all your friends, they can go my way
Pay your toll, sell your soul
Pound for pound costs more than gold
The longer you stay the more you pay
My white lines go a long way
Either up your nose or through your vein
With nothin to gain except killin your brain

(Freeze! Rock!) 4X
(Blow!)

(High...) Higher, baby
(High...) Get higher, baby!
(High...) Get higher, baby!
And don't ever come down! (Freebase!)

Verse Two:

Orang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Orang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Orang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Diggedy dang di-dang diggedy dang di-dang

(Pipe line...) Pure as the driven snow
(Connected to my mind) And now I'm havin fun, baby!
(Pipe cries) It's gettin kinda low
(Cause it makes you feel so nice) I need some one-on-one, baby
(Don't let it blow your mind away) Baby
(And go into your little hideaway cause white lines...blow away)
(Blow! Rock it! Blow!)

A million magic crystals, painted pure and white
A multi-million dollars almost over night
Twice as sweet as sugar, twice as bitter as salt
And if you get hooked, baby, it's nobody else's fault, so don't do it!

(Freeze! Rock!) 4X
Rrrrah! (Blow!)

(High...) Higher, baby
(High...) Get higher, baby!
(High...) Get higher, baby!
And don't ever come down! (Freebase!)


Verse Three:

(Don't get too high) Don't you get too high, baby
(Turns you on) You really turn me on and on!
(Cause you gotta come down) My temperature is risin
(When the thrill is gone) No, I don't want you to go!

A street kid gets arrested, gonna do some time
He got out three years from now just to commit more crime
A businessman is caught with 24 kilos
He's out on bail, and out of jail and that's the way it goes, rrrruh!

(Cane!)
(Sugar! Cane!) 2X

Athletes reject it, governors correct it
Gangsters thugs and smugglers are thoroughly respected
The money gets divided, the women get excited
Now I'm broke and it's no joke it's hard as hell to fight it, don't buy it!

(Freeze!) Huh-huh huh huh! (Rock!)
(Freeze! Rock!) x3
Rrrah! (Blow!)

(High...) Get higher, baby
(High...) Get higher, girl!
(High...) Get higher, baby!
(High...) C'mon! Rrrrrah!!

Verse Four:

(White Lines) Vision dreams of passion
(Blowin through my mind) And all the while I think of you
(Pipe cries) A very strange reaction
(For us to unwind) The more I see the more I do

(Something like a phenomenon) Baby
(Tellin your body to come along, but white lines...blow away...)

Little Jack Horner sittin on the corner with no shoes and clothes
This ain't funny but he took his money and sniffed it up his nose!

Dealer: Hey, man. You wanna cop some blow?
Junkie: Sure, watcha got? Dust, flakes or rocks?
Dealer: I got China White, Mother of Pearl...I reflect what you need.
Junkie: Well yeah, well let me check it out, man. Just let me get a freeze.
Dealer: Go ahead, man. The stuff I got should kill ya...
Junkie: Yeah, man. Th-That's...that's raw...huuuhhhh...

[Don't do it, baby...]

(Freeze!) A-huh huh huh! (Rock!)

Freeze! Rock! (repeat to fade)

"too much coke, and too much smoke, look whats going on around you"

"Fed up with all the LSD, need more sleep than coke or methamphetamines, late nights with warm, warm whiskey, I guess the good times were all just killing me"

Plenty more I'm sure...

[Fugee]

Ayo for yayo, walk around with yayo
all in my nasal, I musta been craze-yo

Listen to the story I'm about to tell
another tale about that yayo
Little girl once innocent and sweet
Fourteen, introduced to the street
Started with weed, big smoke outs
before you could exhale, blunt in your mouth
sham, nay, blew you blew
Now you need something else to do
A new high to try, a new place to go
Introduced to the yay to the yo
house full of girls, old and young
lay it on the table takin' one on ones
Use dollar bills just to snort the lines
you see the big girls do it so of course it's fine
Cocaine enforced on your mind
Not blowed but they blowin' ya time

[hailChickenWing]

"What you get and what you see
Things that don't come easily
Feeling happy in my vein
Icicles within my brain
Something blowing in my head
Winter's ice, it soon will spread
Death would freeze my very soul
Makes me happy, makes me cold
My eyes are blind but I can see
The snowflakes glisten on the tree
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel there's no place freezing me
Let the winter sun shine on
Let me feel the frost of dawn
Fill my dreams with flakes of snow
Soon I'll feel the chilling glow
Don't you think I know what I'm doing
Don't tell me that it's doing me wrong
You're the one who's really a loser
This is where I feel I belong
Crystal world with winter flowers
Turns my day to frozen hours
Lying snowblind in the sun
Will my ice age ever come?"

If you wanna hang out you’ve got to take her out; cocaine.
If you wanna get down, down on the ground; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.

If you got bad news, you wanna kick them blues; cocaine.
When your day is done and you wanna run; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.

If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on; cocaine.
Don’t forget this fact, you can’t get it back; cocaine.
She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.

She don’t lie, she don’t lie, she don’t lie; cocaine.

Song: Rush Rush.

He’s on the level if he’s inclined.
The son of a devil, he wants mine and more.
Ooh, he’s a high, high climber.
Not just a clinging vine.
He made the grade, he made his marks, senor,
And guess who’s keeping score?

Rush rush, got the yeyo?
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo.
Rush rush, got the yeyo?
Uh oh.
Yo yo, no no yeyo.
Uh oh.

He’s a real speed demon.
He’s one of a kind.
Watching, waiting, winking over his shoulder.
He’s running out of time.

Rush rush to the yeyo.
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo.
Uh oh.
Yo yo, no no yeyo.
Go go.
Rush rush to the yeyo.

Never, never take a chance before you know he’s in a hurry.
Better better make your mind up boy, he’s faster, he’s faster, he’s faster, he’s faster.

Rush rush, gimme yeyo.
Buzz buzz buzz, gimme yeyo.
Uh oh.
No no, gimme yeyo.
Yo yo, dame yeyo.
Uh oh.

Rush rush, gimme yeyo.
Buzz buzz buzz, gimme yeyo.
Uh oh.
No no, gimme yeyo.
Yo yo, dame yeyo.
Uh oh.

He’s a real speed demon.
He’s one of a kind.
Watching, waiting, winking over his shoulder.
He’s running out of time, time, time, time.
