It's not just your life you've made a wreck
That kind of logic you just reject
You think that straight just ain't your bag
You've no idea of what's a drag
You've traded good things for a needle's sting
You've took to ridin' with the king

She's not a woman, she's just your wife
She's got no reason to want a life
She'll stick beside you until you mend
You selfish bastard, when will it end
You're not a human, you evil thing
Since you've been ridin' with the king

You've took to lyin' and stealin' too
Who knows then next thing that you will do
When you're down and out and on the ground
Your needle buddies just can't be found
You'll hear the devil, you'll hear him sing
As you go ridin' with the king
