Lyrics

Walked up Ellum and I come down Main Tryin' to bum a nickle, just to buy cocaine Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me Went to Mr. Lehman's on a lope Sign in the window said: 'No more coke'. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me Goin' up State Street, comin' down Main Lookin' for the woman that uses cocaine. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me I'se got a nickle, you'se got a dime... You buy the coke and I'll buy the wine. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice Takes a brown-skinned woman, for my particular use. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me Cocaine's for horses and not for men Doctors sat t'will kill you but they don't say when. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me. Take a whiff on me, take a whiff on me And everybody, take a whiff on me Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me Whiff-a-ree and whiff-a-rye Gonna keep on a whiffin' boys, 'till I die. Ho, ho, honey take a whiff on me.
