Drop your location, she think she me or sum’ (Hendrix)

[Verse 1]
You said, “Speak from your mind
The words that it finds
Come out of your soul, a part of the whole”
You said, “What does it change?
Both of us know
After tonight, there …

Maria…
The most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word:
Maria, Maria, Maria, Maria…
Maria, Maria…
Maria!
I’ve just met a girl named Maria
And …
[Verse 1]
What happens in dreams where we fly?
Never been as high as tonight
Staring through a window in time
For someone to show me what I’m like
He said, “Hello”, it’s like a …
[Verse 1]
Oh-oh-oh, every little smile hides a little lie
Could cut the silence with a knife
Subatomic bliss is nothing left to miss
It’s just empty Russian roulette
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to brush it off my …
Boys workin’ on empty
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?1
I just think about my baby
I’m so full of love I could barely eat2
There’s nothing sweeter than my baby3
I’d never want once from the cherry tree
‘Cause my baby’s sweet as can be
She give me toothaches just from kissin’ me4
When, my, time5 comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth6
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her7
That’s when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin8
I woke with her walls around me
Nothin’ in her room but an empty crib9
And I was burnin’ up a fever
I didn’t care much how long I lived10
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
She never asked me once about the wrong I did11
When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her
When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her
My baby never fret none12
About what my hands and my body done13
If the Lord don’t forgive me
I’d still have my baby and my babe would have me14
When I was kissing on my baby
And she put her love down soft and sweet15
In the lowland plot I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me16
When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her
When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her

To me this song is about someone who has done a lot of wrong in thier life. Is close to death because they don’t care what happens to them, “heaven and hell were words to me” suggests just that. They is telling the story of how they were saved by the love of their lives…. love conquers all.

I took it to mean he lost his baby that was sweet and innocent and never matured to see his sins. Also that he had nothing to live for but when the day comes he lookd forward to meeting her in death.

It’s about addiction.
“Boys working on empty” -He needs a fix.
“I’m so full of love I can barely eat”- No appetite for wanting the drug.
“She gives me toothaches just from kissing me”-Chronic tooth decay, cracked teeth, gingivitis or other forms of gum disease and other complications are often ignored by those who have an addiction.
“When, my, time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I’ll crawl home to her”-When I sober up it’s like death, but I can’t stay away so I’m going to use again.
“That’s when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin”-He was on a bender when he discovered his drug of choice.
“I woke with her walls around me
Nothin’ in her room but an empty crib” – He woke up high. An empty crib symbolizes that to accept addiction means giving up the chance at a family.
“My baby never fret none
About what my hands and my body done”-Drugs don’t judge
