Intro:
Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine
When are  you coming ‘round again?
Oh, and I don&#039;t think I can
Wait that long
Oh you see
That I&#039;m not that strong
Bridge:
The scream of the ambulance
Is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine
How long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?‎
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can&#039;t crawl across the floor
Ah, can&#039;t you see, Sister Morphine
I&#039;m trying to score?‎
Bridge:
Well, it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine
Turn my nightmare into dreams
Oh can&#039;t you see I&#039;m fading fast?‎
And that this shot
Will be my last?‎
Bridge:
Sweet Cousin Cocaine
Lay your cool, cool hand on my head
Ah, come on, Sister Morphine
You better make up my bed
Because you know, and I know
In the morning I&#039;ll be dead
Yeah, and you can sit around
Yeah, and you can watch
All the clean white sheets
Stained red
Bridge:
Outro:
