	Here comes Yoko. She informs us that 'this is the newest song that John wrote'. John adds that 'we've never done this number before, so best of luck.' It's interesting to hear that at this stage, the song is different than the single that would be recorded only two weeks later. It's much lighter and John's just constantly strumming his guitar instead of playing the accents. This version is also faster. Nothing wrong tho, until Yoko comes in, wailing and howling. Sad.

Lyrics

Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky

My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead

Cold turkey has got me on the run

My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone

My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze

Cold turkey has got me on the run

Cold turkey has got me on the run

Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again

Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell

Cold turkey has got me on the run
Oh, oh, oh, oh
