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 down
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 appreciate 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
