Some people say that I'm a bad guy
They may be right, they may be wrong
But it's not as if I don't try
I just mess up and I go wrong
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I swear it
Open up my heart and I will tear it
Any minute now, I swear, I'll share it
Oh it's strange, yes, it's strange
Though I guess it's quite clear
I killed the antelope, the deer
And there's no home on my range
Yes, I'm a little de-arranged but I can change
ย
It's not my fault that I'm so evil
It's society, sobriety
You know my momma picked cotton
And my daddy, boll weevil
It was history, it wasn't me
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I know it
Open up my heart and I will show it
Any minute passed 'til I outgrow it
You'll never change, you'll never change
You'll always be a dog with me
Yes, but don't be such a boob
Manna from Heaven shall be my food
My acts of past were misconstrued
And God above will watch me change
And while I'm changing, I'll be changing, while I change
Soon
ย
But I can change, I can change
I can learn to keep my promises, I swear it
Open up my heart and I will tear it
Any minute now, I swear, I'll share it
I'm gonna change
