Thread Name: Origins: Cocaine Bill and Morphine Sue
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Cocaine Bill and Morphine Sue
I remember a couple of lines from my childhood, although why a 10 year old in Suburban Manchester, UK, would know a song about cocaine is anybodies guess! For the word 'sniff' relace it with a loud sniffing noise up the nose. We did, and that probably explains why we liked it :-)

Morphine Bill and cocaine Sue
Were walking down the Avenue
Saying honey have a 'sniff' have 'sniff' on me
Honey have a 'sniff' on me

They walked from Broadway down to Maine
Looking for a shop that sold cocaine
Saying honey have a 'sniff' have 'sniff' on me
Honey have a 'sniff' on me

That's all I can remember. Must be substance abuse...
