I wake up in the mornin'
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 goin'
Only God knows
where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind
Yeah
When you're born
into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave
me somethin'
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 goin' down
in a blaze of glory
Take me now
But know the truth
I'm goin' 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
Can 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
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 goin' 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
Na na na na na na
Yeah
Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't lookin' 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
Starin' 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 goin' 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
Yeah eah
Young gun
Yeah yeah yeah
Young gun
