Good Guys Don't Always Wear White Lyrics
You say you don't like my kind
A better picture in your mind
No it don't matter what I say
I hear ya bitchin' when I walk away
I'll never be what ya want me ta be
You tell me I'm wrong but I disagree
I ain't got no apology
Just because I don't looklike you, talk like you, think like you.
Judge and jury, a hangman's nuice;
I see them in your eyes...
CHORUS
Good guys don't always wear white
Good Guys don't always wear white
You judge a man who don't stand in line
Just because he ain't on your side
You know the man who wears those shoes
If you cut me don't I bleed like you?
Ya know I do
I don't know whatcha been told
Can't buy guts with a pot 'o gold
A rich man's poor if he got no soul
Rich man, poor man, begger man can
All that shit don't mean a thing
Do you know which one's behind those eyes?
It's always a disguise...
CHORUS
Hey baby...what side you on?
You think you got it all fired out,
Where we belong
Forget all about your dark dressed knight
Day from night,
Wrong from right...
CHORUS
Don't always wear (repeated)
Don't always wear...
White
This is really a song about not judging a book by its cover. When Jon sings "Good guys don't always wear white" (the actual line) it means that the steriotype of all the good guys coming in one package and form is wrong. Its all about looking on the inside.
