| Lyrics | ||
| Rolled down the window doin' 95 Threw out the baggies From the passenger side Always sold more Than I could use I fell in a hole I got the meth lab blues There was a time cops were okay Now I'm afraid - stay out of their way They can see that I got nothing to lose On my second offense I got the meth lab blues From Virginia to Kansas California to Maine No sleepin' still tweakin Paranoid and insane I'm stuck in this trailer Mixing the stuff For people who'd kill me If I don't make enough God help me I'd stop if only I could Too little too late to do any good Know I'm killing myself And other hell bound fools So don't come sniffin' round here I got the meth lab blues |
