You can blame me for the world is mad And the good old rock'n'roll is dead Burning down like falling stars Wasting life behind the bars Life of ignorance is bliss And I don't know why I'm doing this You can take me for what I am I was born a wild man, hey! Don't crucify me, I'm no Jesus I'm a sinner and a prodigal son Don't crucify me, I'm no Jesus I'm a sinner I've been traveling seven seas Trains and highways and STDs Fell in love a million times Drank tequila and got high You can blame me for the world is mad And the good old rock'n'roll is dead You can take me for what I am I was born a wild man, hey!
