I was just thirteen when I left home, |
|
Living in my daddy's shadow, |
|
There was so much goin' on that he couldn't feel, |
|
There were times when I was scared, |
|
Hell, but nobody cared, |
|
And I could tell that the love he spoke of just wasn't real. |
|
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way, |
|
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me. |
|
I love to travel on the back-road, |
|
It's the only life for me, |
|
I know when to go, I sense when to go back, I wanna be free, |
|
There are days when I can move the earth, |
|
And time when I've found what people are worth, |
|
And I can't accept the way we've come to be. |
|
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way, |
|
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me, |
|
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way, |
|
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me. |
|
Then a lady came into my life - she turned me upside dowm, |
|
I was so naive, had my heart in my own sleeve, |
|
I love to see her around, |
|
There were times when I was glad to pay the price, |
|
But there were nights she was cold as ice, so I ran away - and I'm still running now. |
|
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way, |
|
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me. |
|
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way, |
|
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me. |
|
Don't blame me, don't blame me, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me, |
|
Don't blame me, don't blame me, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me. |
|
I hate to have to disagree, I only wanna be me, |
|
Never can just go along with the things I dislike, |
|
I can't help it if I wanna fight, |
|
Don't wanna have to walk away, don't wanna stay another day, |
|
You can't appericiate my point of view, so I may as well as go, |
|
And you know that you could not blame me, don't blame me, |
|
I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me, |
|
Don't blame me, just don't blame me. |
