Текст песни Don't Let the Needle Win - Little River Band

You come to me, ask me for that money again
You say that you need it, to ease that nagging feeling inside your brain
You know I love you like a brother
That's why I'm holding out on you
I'll give most anything I can
To see that you pull through

You gotta keep fighting for your life
Don't you ever give in
It's such a senseless suicide
Letting the needle win

Life is precious to us all, you got to cling to that thread
It's no use you thinking you won't be found in some back alley dead
You're telling me you can't stop, no, you can't change, you're caught up in that web
Instead of running, it's time to face up to those forgotten feelings inside your head

You gotta keep fighting for your life
Don't you ever give in
It's such a senseless suicide
Letting the needle win
Oh, my friend, you're so fragile
You cover your leaf on the wind

It's time to ask yourself why
You're hiding away
You're locking the door
Don't let no one else in
(Why don't you let nobody in?)

You come to me, ask me for that money again
You say that you need it, to ease that nagging feeling inside your brain
You know I love you like a brother
That's why I'm holding out on you
Whoa, I'll give most anything I can
To see that you pull through

You gotta keep fighting for your life
Don't you ever give in
It's such a senseless suicide
Letting the needle win
Oh, you gotta keep fighting for your life
Don't you ever give in
It's such a senseless suicide
Letting the needle win

Don't let the needle win
Don't let the needle win
No, don't you ever give in
Don't let the needle win
