Sister Morphine (1979 12' Version)
Lyricist:Marianne Faithfull, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards
Here I lie in my hospital bed Tell me, Sister Morphine When are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long Oh, you see I'm not that strong
All the other patients say They've never seen a man with such pain Tell me, Sister Morphine When are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long Oh, you see my pain is so strong
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?

Well, it just goes to show Things are not what they seem Please, Sister Morphine Turn my nightmare into dreams
Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast And that this shot will be my last
Sweet Cousin Cocaine Lay your cool hands on my head Hey, Sister Morphine You'd better make up my bed
'Cause you know 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
