Don't Blame Me

I was just thirteen when I left home

Living in my daddy's shadow

There was so much goin' 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 beggin' 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 beggin' 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 beggin' 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 beggin' 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 beggin' you please just don't blame me

Don't blame me, don't blame me

I'm beggin' you please just don't blame me

Don't blame me, don't blame me

I'm beggin' 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 beggin' you please just don't blame me

Don't blame me, just don't blame me
