I'm gonna take you down
Deep down, to the front line
You woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun,
Mama always said you'd be
The Chosen One
She said: You're one in a million
You've got to burn to shine,
But you were born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes
When you woke up this morning
All that love had gone,
Your Papa never told you
About right and wrong
But you're
But you're looking good, baby,
I believe that you're a feeling fine,(shame about it),
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes
So sing it now
Woke up this morning
Got a blue moon
Got a blue moon in your eyes
So sad
God damn
God damned shame about it
You woke up this morning
The world turned upside down, (Lord above),
Thing's ain't been the same
Since the Blues walked into town
But you're
But you're one in a million
You've got that shotgun shine (shame about it),
Born under a bad sign,
With a blue moon in your eyes
When you woke up this morning everything was gone
By half past ten your head was going ding-dong
Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes,
like a voice trying to tell you there's something you should
know Last night you were flying but today you're so low
- ain't it times like these that make you wonder if
you'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to
the others; wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters and
brothers
Don't you wish you didn't function, don't you wish you
didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little
drink?
Well you do so make up your mind to go on, ???cos
when you woke up this morning everything you had was gone
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
You want to be,
You want to be the Chosen One
Yeah, you know it
Just can't help yourself, yeah
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
Woke up this morning,
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
