I fell into that old rock-well
I fell so fast that nobody could tell
But you could tell by the circles
And tell by the smell
I fell into that old rock-well
I was born with a curious mind
Went looking for any trouble I could find
Now I'm out here trying to keep between the lines
And leave all the pain and worries behind
Cocaine Katie she's a small town girl
They say that when she was born
She had the devil's curls
Lost her looks the day she pawned her pearls
Ain't a thing that can save her
In this God-almighty world
There's a plague spreading all across this land
It'll steal your woman, it'll rob your man
Ain't no really telling where it all began
Some say it started with your Uncle Sam
