[Verse 1]
I looked around, been all up and down
And I never wasted time on two or three
There's only one girl for me

[Verse 2]
There was a time she used to treat me fine
But lately she's been acting awful stoned
Makes a man weep and moan

[Chorus]
Eye dee oh lay ee tee
Eye dee leedle odle ay oo ee tee
Eye dee oh lay ee tee lee tee
Deedle odle lee tee
My morphine be the death of me

[Verse 3]
You should have seen me and my morphine
When we used to go dancing in the war
Spin me right off the floor

[Chorus]
Eye dee oh lay ee tee
Eye dee leedle odle ay oo ee tee
Eye dee oh lay ee tee lee tee
Deedle odle lee tee
My morphine be the death of me
[Verse 4]
Morphine, morphine, what made you so mean?
You never used to do me like you do
Where's that sweet gal I knew?

[Chorus]
Eye dee oh lay ee tee
Eye dee leedle odle ay oo ee tee
Eye dee oh lay ee tee lee tee
Deedle odle lee tee
My morphine be the death of me

[Refrain]
My morphine
