They strolled from Broadway down to Main In hopes of finding some cocaine. They came to a drugstore pain- ted green, And on the sign it said "No Morphine". Up in the graveyard on the hill, Lies the body of cocaine Bill, There in the graveyard by his side, Lies the body of his cocaine bride. The moral of this story goes to show, There ain't no sense in snuffin' snow.
