I don’t like cocaine at all, but I sure do like the way it smells.

Ticket to ride, white line highway  
Tell all your friends, they can go my way  
Pay your toll, sell your soul  
Pound for pound costs more than gold  
The longer you stay, the more you pay  
My white lines go a long way  
Either up your nose or through your vein  
With nothin to gain except killin’ your brain

-Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five

Take my advice from the advertsising world  
Treat me nice, says party girl  
Coke adds life where there isn’t any, so freeze  
It’s the pause that refreshes in the corridors of power  
When top men need a top up long before the happy hour  
[. . .]  
Koka Kola advertising and cocaine  
Strolling down the Broadway in the rain  
Neon light sign says it  
I read it in the paper - they’re crazy!  
Suit your life, maybe so  
In the White House - I know  
All Over Berlin (they’ve been doing it for years)  
And in Manhattan!  
-The Clash, Koka Kola  
Bales of cocaine, fallin’ from low-flyin’ planes  
I don’t know who done dropped ‘em, but I thank ‘em just the same  
Bales of cocaine, fallin’ like a foreign rain  
My life changed completely by the low-flyin’ planes

–The Reverend Horton Heat, Bales of Cocaine

“The division seems rather unfair,” I remarked. “You have done all the work in this business. I get a wife out of it, Jones gets the credit, pray what remains for you?”  
“For me,” said Sherlock Holmes, “there still remains the cocaine-bottle.” And he stretched his long white hand up for it.

\*A woman that I know just came from Majorca Spain  
She smiled because I did not understand  
Then she held out a 10 pound bag of Cocaine  
She said it was the best in all the land  
And I said:

No no no no, I don’t sniff it no more  
I’m tired of waking up on the floor  
No, thank you, please,  
It only makes me sneeze  
And then it makes it hard to find the door\*

**No No Song** - Hoyt Axton (performed by Ringo Starr)

Cocaine habit’s mighty bad  
It’s the worst ol’ habit that I ever had.  
Hey, hey, honey take a whiff on me.

If you don’t think cocaine is good  
Ask Alma Rose at Minglewood.  
Hey, hey, honey take a whiff on me

I love my whiskey and I love my gin  
But the way I love my coke it’s a goddamn sin.  
Hey, hey, honey take a whiff on me.

from “Cocaine Habit Blues,” recorded by the Memphis Jug Band, 1930.
