Junkie Doll Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Turnpike Lane, Turnpike Lane
You spiked my arm
But you missed the vein
Now it's all gone
But the scars remain

[Refrain]
Junkie doll, I was stuck on you
My junkie doll

[Verse 2]
Turnham Green, Turnham Green
You took me high
As I've ever been
Now it's all gone
And now I'm clean

[Refrain]
Junkie doll, I was stuck on you
My junkie doll

[Chorus]
And a little bit of this'd get you up
And a little bit of that'd get you down
A little bit of this'd get you up
And a little bit of that'd get you down
And a little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down
A little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down

[Verse 3]
Turnpike Lane, Turnpike Lane
You took my heart
Pan American
Now rain or shine
It's all the same

[Refrain]
Junkie doll, I was stuck on you
My junkie doll

[Chorus]
And a little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down
A little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down
And a little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down
A little bit of this'd get you up
A little bit of that'd get you down
