Songtexte

Well, I don't want you puttin' words in my hands
That is to say, don't tell me what to do
Well, you might be a better man, you might have a better plan
Well, I ain't no fightin' man myself, but I ain't afraid of you
And yes it's true that I am crazy, as if you didn't know
Guess I'm crazier than you, as if it doesn't show
Well, at the age of three, my papa said to me
Son, you'll be a gamblin' man
I had a smile on my poker face and I said, "I already am"
Those fancy ideas are your lies in disguise
Don't try to bring your trouble self on me
'Cause I ain't nobody's fool, and I'm just blind enough to see
I can't live your life for you, you can't live your life for me
You don't seem to hear me when I sing the blues
And I can't trust you with the truth
So don't sing your blues to me
Well, I ain't no preacher man, just an honest fool
Who's been feedin' your fire, and I expect the same from you
Take your fancy ideas and keep them to yourself
I know right from wrong
You can't teach me nothin' else
Your fancy ideas are just lies in disguise
Don't try to blame your troubles on me
'Cause, hey, I ain't nobody's fool
