	The hospital called last night
	they said you’d gone code silver
	they sent the police out searchin’
	found you down at fifth and minnow
	High on crack cocaine
	you and Juan Valdez
	they sent him back to jail
	and they put you back to bed
	They called in the mornin’
	said you were found outside
	and put the phone down
	Your cat jumped on my lap
	and I laid down and I took a nap
	Feelin’ bad and full of shame that I
	somehow contributed to your pain
	I wish I could help you with your problems
	but babe, I got enough of my own
	I fell asleep and dreamed of you
	the PA said code blue
	I hailed a taxicab
	got there and found you up in west two
	My beautiful sweet Elaine
	all that was killin’ you finally drained
	from your sweet angelic face
	and I kneeled down and whispered your name
	I cried and I cried
	you crawled and found a corner and you died
	I ought to kiss my sweet Elaine goodbye
	and I walked out in the rain
	I walked out in the rain
	and there you were again
	lookin’ down on me from high
	like a cloud in the sky
	I cried and I cried
	I remember all the nights
	that I loved my sweet Elaine
	and that I kissed my sweet Elaine
	and then I looked up high
	saw you floatin’ in the sky
	and I cried and I cried
	like a baby I cried
	Not much to pick from
	in my view
	trees that shake
	when the wind comes through
	and the boots I got
	say the water is blue
	but I only feel alive
	when the birds fly
	Not much to pick from
	in my record collection
	I sold ‘em all away,
	don’t want no recollection
	I put ‘em in the past,
	don’t wanna hear the songs
	just wanna play guitar
	and sing my own
	The phone rang I picked up
	it was you
	you said you were out there waitin’
	I hailed a taxi pulled up front
	there stood a pretty lady
	smokin’ a cigarette
	lookin’ eight pounds heavier
	I helped you into the back
	and put your bags in the trunk

	The hospital called last night
	they said you' d gone code silver
	they sent the police out searchin'
	found you down at fifth and minnow
	High on crack cocaine
