I've never been a thief
But I won't say I'll never steal
I've never been a star
But that doesn't mean I don't appeal
But I always read the Bible
But too seldom do I kneel
Well I disregard the writing
And I play just what I feel
So what do I care? Why should I care?
All I really want is something more than you can order
From a telephone, if they call I'm not at home
So write it off as another loss and let the world leave me alone
Let the world leave me alone
I've been a truthful man
But I won't say I've never lied
I've always had a plan
But somehow it never was applied
Never got my share of lovin'
I've always been denied
I ain't greedy, but I aim to take
What rightfully is mine
All I really want is something that I do not have to share
Hide it under lock and key so they'll never see
Or they'll never know and let someone else be responsible
And let the world leave me alone
People try to tell me I'm a dreamer
Wastin' everybody else's time
Movin' all around I'm just a schemer
Gettin' into everybody's way
Let the world leave me alone
Let the world leave me alone
Let the world leave me alone
World leave me alone
