Can't Kick the Habit

Well, I can't kick this habit

And this junk is killin' me

Yeah, and I can't kick this habit

And this junk is killin' me

Ever since I started this habit

Everything's been down on me

I hung around my friends and smoked reefer

And I thought I was doin' alright

Yes, I hung around my friend and smoked reefer

And I, I thought

I thought I was doin' alright

Now I done lost a good woman

And I have no place to sleep at night

Well, I went to the doctor

See could he cure this habit for me

Yes, I went to the doctor

See could he cure this habit for me

He looked at me and shook his head

And said that dope is killin' me

(Oh, play it for me)

(Oh, yeah)

Yes, I know it's killin' me

But I feel good anyhow

I wished I'd a listened to what my mother said

She told me that dope wasn't no good

But I didn't pay it no mind

I thought I was doin' alright

Now, I'm stayin' sick as I could be

It don't pay nobody

Just to live their life so bad

It don't pay nobody

Ooh

Just to live, to live their life so bad

If you just take it slow and easy

Just as long as this habit lasts
