Every night another woman   Every day a different town   If I'm not accused of speeding   I'm accused of coming down   With a legal dose of something   That you heard was going 'round   And you wondered why I lost my sense of humor      Every song another record   Every day just like a clock   Knowing well I've had to take it   Till I make it to the top   With the devil right behind me   And my heart about to stop   Then you wondered why I lost my sense of humor      Twenty years I was in prison   More than that I was alone   Some lily-white reporter   Thinks it's time that I was stoned   Without sin, he wrote the story   And it chilled me to the bone   Then he wondered why I lost my sense of humor      I shaved my beard and cut my hair off   It don't matter anyhow   It was truth that told the answers   To the questions up till now   "Crucify him," someone shouted   From the safety of the crowd   Then they wondered why I lost my sense of humor      Hey, take them crosses from my doorstep   There's no reason to my rhyme   Everybody knows somebody   Will take care of me in time   I made friends of all you stand for   But the blind can't lead the blind   Just be glad I haven't lost my sense of humor      Just be glad I haven't lost my sense of humor   'Cause if I ever catch you I'm gonna kick your ass
