When I put a spike into my vein
              G                       D
And I tell ya things aren't quite the same          when you hit the word

     G            D
Away from the big city
        G              D
Where a man can not be free
           G             D
Of all the evils of this town

Oh, I really don't care anymore
              G                D
'Bout all the jim-jims in this town
                G                    D
And all the politicians making crazy sounds
              G                      D
And everybody puttin' everybody else down
                 G                  D
And all the dead bodies piled up in Nam

And thank your God that I'm not aware
          G                     D
And thank God that I just don't care
