Blame It On Cain

Once upon a time, I had a little money.
Government burglars took it long
before I could send it to you girl.
but, you are the only one.
this is what I'm gonna do.
When the man with the ticker tape,
he tries to take it,
well this is what I'm gonna say.
Blame it on Cain.
Please Don't blame it on me.
It's nobody's fault,
but we need somebody to burn.
Well if I was a saint with
a silver cup
and the money got low
we could always heat it up
or trade it in.
But then the radio that heaven will be wired to your purse.
And then you can run down the wave band,
coast to coast, hand in hand.
Bad to worse, curse for curse,
don't be dissatisfied.
Cause I'm not satisfied.
Blame it on Cain.
Please Don't blame it on me.
It's nobody's fault,
but we need somebody to burn.
Blame it on Cain.
Please Don't blame it on me.
It's nobody's fault,
It just seems to be his turn
I think I've lived a little too long
on the outskirts of town
I think I'm going insane
from talking to myself for so long.
yeah, but I've never been accused.
When they step on your face,
you wear that good look grin.
I gotta get out for a weekend
before I do somebody in.
and every single time
I feel a little stronger.
they tell me it's a crime.
but how much longer?
Blame it on Cain.
Please don't blame it on me.
It's nobody's fault,
but we need somebody to burn.
Blame it on Cain.
Please don't blame it on me.
It's nobody's fault,
It just seems to be his turn
