I'm a wicked man
at least that's what I'm told
but I'm pretty sure
I aint sold my soul
done tried the Buddha
I tried the Tao [dow]
I tried to live
in the here and now
done tried to do the best that I can
but still some say I'm a wicked man
I done things
in my past
that I still regret
but the feeling don't last
when I get real drunk
it all goes away
and I guess I can make it
through another day
but through my fingers slips the sand
I aint got time to be a wicked man
she told me baby
she told me true
you gotta stop
the bad things you do
get a job
make things reet
get off the floor
and back on your feet
she means well but I can't understand
what she means by "a wicked man"
I'm only human
I may be weak
but my heart is in
the right place
I gotta get out
I gotta make it stop
and get back in
the human race
I aint no exception
but I'm looking for redemption
my friends all tell me
I aint so bad
and they're the best friends
that I ever had
but I don't know
just where to begin
I swear to God
I didn't know it was a sin
out of the fire into the frying pan
please don't say I'm just a wicked man
