Betty Wright - No Tricks lyrics

No tricks Up my sleeve I kicked the downs And now I'm clean No shakes Up my spine I beat the speed and I Dumped the wine No tracks That was yesterday I changed my style The way I play (Don't you believe it) No blues No depression No more panic Or obsession Don't you believe Anything he said All them junkies talk that way It's just as bad as it was before I see the man knockin' at his back door ... this kid's straight And put on ice The street corner deals at any price Come on and check my veins And check my eyes No tracks That was yesterday I changed my style The way I play (Don't you believe it) No blues No depression No more panic Or obsession Some tricks Just go away And other tricks They're here to stay (Oh don't you know me) Sometimes my spirit's willin' The flesh is weak and That's what's k**in' Don't you believe Anything he said All them junkies talk that way It's just as bad as it was before I see the man knockin' at his back door Hey now this kid's straight Put on ice The street corner deals at any price Come on and check my veins And check my eyes I tried so hard But I'm hurting for another fix It's just this habit I, I can always kick What do you say there friend? (Don't you call me..) It's just a game And I can beat it any day No matter what this lovely lady say Hey, wanna be my friend? Some tricks They go away And other tricks They're here to stay (Oh don't you know me) Sometimes my spirit's willin' My flesh is weak and That's what's k**in' Don't you believe Anything he said All them junkies talk that way It's just as bad as it was before I see the man knockin' at his back door I said this kid's straight And put on ice The street corner deals at any price Come on and check my veins And check my eyes
