I've always been crazy and the trouble that it's put me through
 I've been busted for things that I did, and I didn't do
 I can't say I'm proud of all of the things that I've done
 But I can say I've never intentionally hurt anyone

I've always been different with one foot over the line
 Winding up somewhere one step ahead or behind
 It ain't been so easy but I guess I [bad word]  I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane

Beautiful lady are you sure that you understand
 The chances your taking loving a free living man
 Are you really sure you really want what you see
 Be careful of something that's just what you want it to be

I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane
 Nobody knows if it's something to bless or to blame
 So far I ain't found a rhyme or a reason to change
 I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane
