It wouldn't be for about another year or two before he tries heroin. I believe he was 13/14 here. He was given heroin to try by an older lady at 15 years old. He did already try Marijuana though. Most of the teenagers had even before becoming famous.

AS MUCH AS I LOVE THIS SONG, I HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH SOME WORDS USED HERE.

'ITS EASY TO BE GOOD AND, HARD TO BE BAD'.
ONLY IF THIS CAN BE TRUE.

In life one thing I learned at a very young age and, more than 30 years before I ever heard this song, was that it's very EASY to be BAD and, to be GOOD, it sometimes never happens.
A lot of my friends and relatives DIED having done almost NOTHING GOOD in their entire lives.
