Cold Turkey
Yoko Ono · Other Songs - Yoko Ono
The fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky
My feet are so heavy
And so is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
My body is aching
Goose pimple bone
I can't see nobody
Leave me alone
My eyes are wide open
I can't go to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Thirty six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again
I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Out of this hell
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
Cold turkey has got me on the run
