Don't Blame Me

(الألبوم: Playing To Win - 1985)

I was just thirteen when I left home,
Living in my daddy's shadow,
There was so much going on that he couldn't feel,
There were times when I was scared,
Hell, but nobody cared,
And I could tell that the love he spoke of just wasn't real.

Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way,
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me.

I love to travel on the back-road,
It's the only life for me,
I know when to go, I sense when to go back, I wanna be free,
There are days when I can move the earth,
And time when I've found what people are worth,
And I can't accept the way we've come to be.

Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way,
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me,
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way,
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me.

Then a lady came into my life she turned me upside dowm,
I was so naive, had my heart in my own sleeve,
I love to see her around,
There were times when I was glad to pay the price,
But there were nights she was cold as ice, so I ran away and I'm still running now.

Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way,
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me.
Don't blame me if I just don't like it that way,
Please let me go, don't ask me to stay,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me.
Don't blame me, don't blame me,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me,
Don't blame me, don't blame me,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me.

I hate to have to disagree, I only wanna be me,
Never can just go along with the things I dislike,
I can't help it if I wanna fight,
Don't wanna have to walk away, don't wanna stay another day,
You can't appericiate my point of view, so I may as well as go,
And you know that you could not blame me, don't blame me,
I'm begging you please just don't blame me,
Don't blame me, just don't blame me.
