I wake up in the morning
                     And I raise my weary head
                     I've got an old coat for a pillow
                     And the earth was last night's bed
                     I don't know where I'm going
                     Only God knows where I've been
                     I'm a devil on the run
                     A six gun lover
                     A candle in the wind

                     When you're brought into this world
                     They say you're born in sin
                     Well at least they gave me something
                     I didn't have to steal or have to win
                     Well they tell me that I'm wanted
                     Yeah, I'm a wanted man
                     I'm a colt in your stable
                     I'm what Cain was to Abel
                     Mister catch me if you can

                     I'm going out in a blaze of glory
                     Take me now but know the truth
                     I'm going out in a blaze of glory
                     Lord I never drew first
                     But I drew first blood
                     I'm no one's son
                     Call me young gun

                     You ask about my conscience
                     And I offer you my soul
                     You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
                     Well I ask if I'll grow old
                     You ask me if I've known love
                     And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
                     Well, I've seen love come
                     And I've seen it shot down
                     I've seen it die in vain

                     Shot down in a blaze of glory
                     Take me now but know the truth
                     'Cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
                     Lord I never drew first
                     But I drew first blood
                     I'm the devil's son
                     Call me young gun

                     Solo

                     Each night I go to bed
                     I pray the Lord my soul to keep
                     No I ain't looking for forgiveness
                     But before I'm six foot deep
                     Lord, I got to ask a favor
                     And hope you'll understand
                     'Cause I've lived life to the fullest
                     Let this boy die like a man
                     Staring down a bullet
                     Let me make my final stand

                     Shot down in a blaze of glory
                     Take me now but know the truth
                     I'm going out in a blaze of glory
                     Lord I never drew first
                     But I drew first blood
                     And I'm no one's son
                     Call me young gun
                     I'm a young gun
