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 [bad word] six gun lover
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 colt in your stable
I`m what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can

I`m going down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the [bad word] 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 [bad word] And I`ve seen it show down
I`ve seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the [bad word] `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

Each night I go to bedI 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 I 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 [bad word] I`m going down 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
