I remember when I saw the sea freeze,
But it said nothing about the birds and the bees.
They were swarming around my head, you'll be better off dead,
But I ain't going down like that, I ain't going down like that.

Cause I'm better than him and I know where I've been,
You know where I'm coming from.
And a lie is a sin, but don't we all sin,
That is the truth and the truth is grim.

Now he is in jail and his story is for sale,
The farmers dogs wags his crippled tail.
It points to the west and leaves out the rest,
And invites you to be His special guest.

I remember when I saw the leaves fall,
I was in the woods in a gown you wouldn't wear to the Ball.
Into the ditch I fly, wanted dead or alive,
But I ain't going down like that, no I ain't going down like that.

Cause I'm better than him and I know where I've been,
You know where I'm coming from.
And a lie is a sin but don't we all sin,
That is the truth and the truth is grim.

Now he is in jail and his story is for sale,
The farmers dogs wags his crippled tail.
It points to the west and leaves out the rest,
And invites you to be His special guest.
