I caught you knockin'

At my cellar door

I love you, baby,

Can I have some more

Ooh, ooh, the damage done.



I hit the city and

I lost my band

I watched the needle

Take another man

Gone, gone, the damage done.



I sing the song

Because I love the man

I know that some

Of you don't understand

Milk-blood

To keep from running out.



I've seen the needle

And the damage done

A little part of it in everyone

But every junkie's

Like a settin' sun.
