Wild Man Singing

Said when I was born, I didn't have time to cry
I saw a strange shadow dancing while she sang out my life
If you got soul, you got more than you need to survive
I said, "I wanna chase some honey", as I ran out the door
When I hit the road I found her, fell to my knees
She said, "I know you've been running and what you want to see"
And then she sold me on a bottle of dreams
You know I followed her and gave to her the chain and the keys

I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me

If you see me high you know my demons are wired
I see the cold fever beating down the hope in your eyes
And I've been told down the road what it takes to get out
My head is spinning, ain't no winning in this merry-go-round
Said when I'll be gone ain't gonna look back and cry
Gave her my bones and confusion for a handful of rhymes
Nobody owns me, I've got my bottle of dreams
And I'm as happy as the Joker that you hide up your sleeve

I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me

Ain't that the way to take it on now?
Ain't that the way to let it go now?
Ain't that the way to let it go now
Way to take it home now, way to save my Soul?

I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
I'm a wild man singing about the music
Please forgive me
