I got something to say

I'm scared and so afraid

Can you take me as I am?

Come what may our blood is all the same

I'm still your little man He said, "You ain't no son to me

You ain't no son to me

Eight pound baby boy

I bounced on my knee" No, you ain't no son of mine

You ain't no son of mine

Aw, forget it girls

There ain't no use in trying Don't expect to get my love for free

And don't blame me Well, this ain't no fun for me

This ain't fun for me

Oh, boys should be boys

That's how it should be, yeah You ain't coming home

No, you ain't coming home

'Til you walk the straight line

You'll be out on your own Don't expect to save your soul for free

When you're the one who turned your back on me Aren't you a sight to see

Yeah, you're a sight to see

What you call freedom

Makes you look like a freak, yeah You must get around

'Cause it sure got around

Don't you know that

I can't show my face in this town Don't think I'm gonna get you up off of me

When you're the one who turned your back on me Stranger, stranger on the wall

When the neighbors come to call

I just don't know what to say

So I'll put you away This time I won't leave a trace

I'll fill up the empty space

When I put you, I put you away

I put you away He said, "You ain't no son to me

You ain't no son to me

Eight pound baby boy

I bounced on my knee" No, you ain't no son of mine

You ain't no son of mine

Aw, forget it girls

There ain't no use in trying Don't expect to get my love for free

When you're the one who turned your back on me Don't blame me

Yeah, don't blame me

Don't blame me Shame on you

Shame on you

Shame on you
