I checked into rehab
I been feeling so bad
In my head!
In my head!
And my body burns like fires' inside
I got no respect and I don't care for pride
I'm really messed up now!
I'm really shaking now!
And my sister!
Oh how I miss her!
My sister!
I let the devil kiss her!
And she's gone gone away from my protection
My love and affection
I cannot save her now!
I cannot be there now!
(Blues solo)
I remember the day she was born
How mama was so happy to have a girl after all
After having four boys
We were all overjoyed
My little sister
She was my treasure
She took to me
I was her best brother
And I loved her
Wanted the world for her
But I was a little messed up inside
With my rock n roll band, I had a rock n roll lifestyle!
Alcohol, rock n drugs
These were the things I didn't go without
I told my sister not to do what I do
I tell you this child cause i love you!
(music)
She was fourteen and she started her own band
Played my guitar almost better than I did
I know she was gonna shine so bright
Thought all I knew 'bout music to the kid
Her band played some shows, they opened for us
The crowds roared, she rocked them all!
She was gonna be a star!
Mum and dad were so proud of her!
(SOLO)
One night I was so damn high!
I think I was out of my mind!
I brought some angel dust and offered to sis
All my life I'd regret this
When she started she just couldn't stop
She went over the line and couldn't give up
I got high and she got higher
We took down that shit together
Mama and daddy and brothers were angry
All of them. yelled and screamed at me
They said your little sister had just ODed
We rushed to the hospital too late
Sister is gone and it's me we all blame
I cried so many nights and i feel cold
I know I had to leave those things alone
Nothing is gonna bring back my loving sister
I have to live with this guilt and pain for ever
And I'll never do any drugs again
As a homage to my sister my friend, oh oh woh
(SOLO)
(Acoustic guitar only for last verse)

Though nothing could change my mistakes
And nothing could mend this heartbreak
If my family forgive me I'd appreciate that
I'd take my music to make a brighter start
I'd rage against drugs every possible way now
I love you little sister, forgive me somehow!
