Blame It On Cain

Once upon a time,

I had a little money

Government burglars took it long

Before I could mail it to you

But you are the only one

Now, I can't let it slip away

So, if the man with the ticker tape

Tries to take it

This is what

I'm gonna say

Blame it on

CainDon't blame it on me

Oh, oh, it's nobody's fault

But we need somebody to burn

Well, if I was a saint with a silver cup

And the money got lowwe could always heat it up

Or trade it in

But then the radio to heaven

Will be wired to your purse

Then you can run down the wave band

Coast to coast, hand in hand

Better or worse, curse for curse

Don't be dissatisfied, so, you're not satisfied

Blame it on

CainDon't blame it on me

Oh, oh, it's nobody's fault

But we need somebody to burn

I think I've lived a little too long

On the outskirts of town

I think I'm going insane

From talking to myself for so long

Oh, but I've never been accused

But when they step up on your face

They wear that good look grin

I gotta break out one weekend

Try to do somebody in

But every single time

I feel a little stronger

They tell me it's a crime

Well, how much longer?

Blame it on

CainDon't blame it on me

Oh, oh, it's nobody's fault

But we need somebody to burn

Blame it on

CainPlease, don't blame it on me

It's nobodies fault

But it just seems to be his turn
