  • Why's my baby dressed in black

    Don't want you to leave won't you please come back

    Cocaine, all around my brain

    Hey baby won't you please come quick

    This old cocaine's a makin' me sick

    Cocaine, all around my brain

    Yonder come my baby dressed in white

    Well now baby won't you stay the night

    Cocaine, it's all around my brain

  • Damn... Davy was one of the most original interpreters out there. I only realized recently that all the people who play the song with this melody got it from him. (Or from Nick Drake, who got it from Davy.) RIP

  • heard him play in a small hall in wallington croydon in the early seventies he looked very fit andhe also smoked roll ups cos my misses took a fag out of his tin thinking it was mine oh! memories

  • great guitarist - innovative & totally individual. love his mix of styles & cultural nuances - & the sensitivity in his playing is beautiful - check out his work with shirley collins!

  • This album is one of my most treasured possessions. I picked it up from a roadside stall forty years ago - for 50p/ten bob!

    All my years in London & I never saw Davy live. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

  • Haha. Great song! Makes me smile. (: . Davy was awesome

  • Great guitarist. Saw him in a club called Les Cousins in Greek St Soho. He came on at about 3 in the morning, when we were all knackered, resplendent in a 3 piece white suit, white shirt and red tie - immaculate in every sense.

  • Yonder come my baby dressed in white Well now baby won't you stay the night Cocaine, all around my brain Here's my baby dressed in blue She said lover whats a matter with you? Cocaine, all around my brain Hey baby won't you please come quick This old cocaine's a makin' me sick Cocaine, all around my brain Well now baby your dressed in red If your loves for me won't you come to bed Cocaine, all around my brain
