Lyrics of Sister Morphine - Live "Blazing Away" Version by Marianne Faithfull
verse
Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine
When are you coming around again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh you see I'm not that strong
verse
The scream of the ambulance
Is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine
How long have I been lying here?
verse
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Can't you see, Sister Morphine?
I'm just tryin' a score
verse
Well it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine
Turn my nightmare into dream
Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast?
And that this shot will be my last
verse
Sweet cousin Cocaine
Lay your cool hands on my head
Hey, Sister Morphine
You better make up my bed
For you know now and I know
In the morning I'll be dead
And you can sit around and you can watch
The clean white sheets stain red
Writer(s): Keith Richards, Michael Phillip Jagger
