Needle Man Lyrics - Skrewdriver

He's the kind of man who sticks his job for the money that he gets 

He don't spend his money at the pub or making bets 

Goes down town, goes in the bar and makes his contact there 

He gets the gear, he takes a shot, and his eyes begin to stare 

Chorus: 

'Cos he's a junkie, needle-man 

Needs the kicks, don't give a damn 

Yeah a junkie, needle-man 

Needs the kicks, don't give a damn 

He's getting weaker everyday but he has to keep his job 

He'll get no more money on the day he has to stop 

One day at work he feels so bad that he falls down on the floor 

The boss he assures he don't abuse but he throws him out the door 

(Repeat Chorus) 

solo 

(Repeat Chorus) 

They find him dying on the floor, yeah he's lying on his back 

He's covered in newspapers and a dirty ripped-up sack 

The dawn it breaks, the rain it falls, but the young man doesn't live 

He gave his life to pills and syringes, and had nothing left to give 

(Repeat Chorus)
