I wake up in
the morning
and I raise my
weary head
I 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 the run,
a six gun lover,
a candle in the wind
When you're brought
into the 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 a 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 truth
I'm going down 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
When I ask if
I'll grow old
You ask me if
I've known love
and what its 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 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 bed
I 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 favour
And I hope
you'll understand
'Cause I've lived
life to the fullest
Let this boy die
like a man
Staring down
the bullet
let me make
my final stand
Shot down in a
blaze of glory
Take me now but
know the truth
I'm going 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
Young gun
Yeah
Young gun
