Lyrics

Got no monkey on my back

And I'm never going to crack

'Cause it's a good life

Too good to lose

But it's a hard world

With the junkie blues

Got no street car called desire

And I'll never light the fire

'Cause it's a good life

Too good to lose

But it's a hard world

With the junkie blues

Got no monkey on my back

And I'm never going to crack

'Cause it's a good life

Too good to lose

But it's a hard world

With the junkie blues
