"Cocaine" SongEric Clapton has done the best known song with the title "Cocaine." But, other artists have also written songs by that name. For example, in the late 70's - J.J. Cale too.ACTUALLY, J.J. Cale was the original writer. Clapton ripped off alot of his songsI might have to agree here, I also thought Cale wrote this song. He had a couple of killer albums, one of which was a "white" album with cocaine on it. Also, "I'm goin down, I'm goin down down down down down". Great song. As for ripping Clapton off, they're buds and performed together on numerous occassons.
