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

A canção “Cold Turkey” aborda o tema da abstinência de drogas, refletindo a experiência pessoal de John Lennon.
Lennon originalmente pretendia gravar “Cold Turkey” com os Beatles para o álbum *Abbey Road*, mas a ideia foi recusada pelos demais membros da banda.
A recusa dos outros Beatles levou Lennon a gravar a música como artista solo, marcando um dos primeiros lançamentos pós‑Beatles.
A letra direta e crua sobre dependência de substâncias fez de “Cold Turkey” um dos primeiros singles de rock a tratar abertamente de vício.
