(B. LaBOUNTY, S. LORBER, G. PRESTOPINO)

I came into this world alone
ain't nothin' here but meat and bone
I took what god give to me
now what you get is what you see

I was born with it
born with it
I was born with it
and it'll be here 'till I die

saw my angel's shiny face
comin' up ol' natchez trace
she said "how come you walk so tall
when you ain't got a thing at all"

chorus
oh oh oh oh
long as nothin's free
oh oh oh oh
nothin's all I need
 
midnight howlin' at the moon
I'm on a tear and outa tune
got a nail bent and a screw that's loose
now you tell me what's your excuse

chorus

I came into this world alone
little bit of love is all I own
be careful now how much you take
'cause I still got a heart that breaks

chorus

quit pullin' my chain
ringin' my bell
runnin' my ragged ass all over hell an' gone
you don't wanna be swingin' doncha hang on my tree
but where you gonna find another good-looker like me

i been flat on my back
dead on my feet
how you gonna ride a horse that you're beatin' on
everybody lookin' to get somethin' for free
but where you gonna find another good-looker like me
 
you say i'm a conceited so and so
don't ask me why i think you'll show
i just know
 
well it ain't no sin
but it's a minor abuse
better keep it in your pocket if you ain't gonna use it now
let me lay it out straight, don't wanna confuse you
you got your butcher and your baker, your celebrity
but where you gonna find another good-lookerlike me
 
BRIDGE
you know what you want me to give you
and you know i always satisfy
my oh my
 
so don't you rattle my brain
jngle my nerves
what did i do, what did i do to deserve it all
you could wind up with a joker let you live for free
but where you gonna find another good-looker like me
 
don't ya gimme that look
don't ya show me that lip
when you gonna turn around an' get on the hot tip, baby
you can look in the mountains or under the sea
you can lean on your religion, your philosophy
you can run to your mama but i think she'll agree
you ain't never gonna find
never gonna find
never gonna find
another good-looker like me

(G. Prestopino / S. Lorber)

another talk show zero barking on tv
why's everybody take him seriously
you know it ain't the truth
it's only entertainment
loud mouth, north or south
they're just the same
if you turn it on you'll tune it in
and disconnect your brain

instead of going blind
I pushed back my recliner
and threw my remote away
I had faith today
  someone's little criminal heading off to school
making damn sure he ain't nobody's fool
jeans fallin' off his hips
tattoo on his shoulder
don't ask him where he's goin'
he won't tell you where he's been
and his little red bandana
don't make him huckleberry finn

looks like he's reaching for his heater
it's just a copy of lolita
that's he got stashed away

and I had faith today
 
I saw a bluebird on the wing
heard a choir of children sing
felt the sun hang hot and yellow in the sky
I knew the wonder of your touch
you know it may not seem like much
but I had faith today

you and me we're always
'bout to vanish out that door
who would blame us if we couldn't take it anymore
but you found a way to laugh a little
so I laughed a little too
just a chain of little victories
when you're running out of rope
string em all together and you build a little hope

you touched me where I live
so I just had to give in
and find another reason to stay
I had faith today
 
I saw a bluebird on the wing
heard a choir of angels sing
felt the sun hang hot and yellow in the sky
I felt the music in your touch

you know it may not seem like much but I had faith today
amen
amen
ah

amen
amen
ah

amen
amen
ah

amen
amen
ah
