Ain't the Man |
I gather my sins in a gunny sack, way down the side of the scale |
When it meets the ground, a sickening sound, I’ll await that trumpet’s wail |
With a fist of mud right before my judge, may he lay his glory on me |
A verdict passed with an audible laugh, I know what the score will be |
Was a time I tried, and many I lied, and there were plenty of them by and by |
But I don’t expect to stretch out my neck, these reasons I’ll tell you why |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
No, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because the life I lead, one of strife and greed |
I can’t break that hold on me |
Oh no, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because I dance with the Devil and I gamble with God |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
There been them nights I prayed for change, that fear I never could |
There been them days I stayed the same and I knew I never would |
There been them weeks when all was bleak, buddy, drink that bottle brown |
There been there years with a lack of tears, that wall came crashing down |
Well, I’m the son of a farmer, a low down charmer, I can cheat my way in cards |
I done stabbed my fingers, I’m an off-key singer when I play that broke guitar |
And well, I can talk, I been around the block, I can lift my Lord on high |
But I wouldn’t take a chance if you want romance, and these reasons I’ll tell |
you why |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
No, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because the life I lead, one of strife and greed |
I can’t break that hold on me |
Oh no, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because I dance with the Devil and I gamble with God |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
No, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
No, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because the life I lead, one of strife and greed |
I can’t break that hold on me |
Oh no, I ain’t the man, I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
Because I dance with the Devil and I gamble with God |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
I ain’t the man that you want me to be |
