The Needle And The Damage Done

I caught you knocking at my cellar door
I love you, baby, ‘Can I have some more?’
Oh, the damage done
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done

I sing the song because I love the man

I know that some of you don’t understand
Milk-blood to keep from running out

I’ve seen the needle and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie’s like a setting sun
