I was born, I was born, at the edge of the sun.
The seventh child of a storm and a nuclear bomb
You’ve got a bullet for me, I got a hundred and more
I’m the bombs and the guns—I’m the hand of the law.

Gonna ride on, ride on, ride on to the sun
Gonna ride on, ride on, ride on where we’re from
Alright, alright, say the devil can’t win every time
Say there’s something to see
Mama, I’m a son of a gun
Alright, alright, say the devil can’t win any time
Well, I’m something to see
Mama, I’m a son of a gun. Look out!

Look around, look around for the moment to come
Gonna ride in a storm to the heart of the sun
You gotta bullet for me, I got a hundred and more
I’m the bombs and the guns. I’m the hand of the law

Gonna ride on, ride on, ride on to the sun
Gonna ride on, ride on, ride on where we’re from
Alright, alright, say the devil can’t win every time
Say there’s something to see
Mama, I’m a son of a gun
Alright, alright, say the devil can’t win any time
Well, I’m something to see
Mama, I’m a son of a gun. Goddam! Goddam! Goddam!

Somebody just call me crazy
Somebody just call me wrong
Nobody—Mama I’m a son of a gun
Somebody just call me crazy
Somebody just call me wrong
Nobody—Mama I’m a son of a gun, gun gun, gun, gun

Somebody, anything you got to say
Somebody, anything to say to me
Nobody, Mama I’m a son of a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun

Somebody, anything you got to say
Somebody, anything to say to me
Nobody, Mama I’m a son of a gun.
