I got no shame, I ain´t to blame, I got no memory I got no conscience on my shoulder there to bother me I´m on a trip without a script, into oblivion I guess that´s just the way I like to play to have some fun
I don´t need a toke or have a smoke to try to clear my head Ain´t no use, already loose when I roll out of bed
I got no future, got not past, got no eternity Don´t need to know just gotta go, that´s my reality I´m all alone, I got no phone, I don´t communicate I got no pace, ain´t in the race, so I´m never late Don´t need to cook or read a book, don´t need to wash or shave See I am free to be just me, I´m Independence Dave
He´s Dave, Independence Dave
He´s Dave, Independence Dave He´s Dave, Independence Dave
I got a girl, she´s just a pearl from down in St. Clair Shore But, there´s a brother of another knockin´ down my door I got some money from a honey livin´ way downtown And there´s this one who´s got a gun, that´s tryin´ to hunt me down I try to love ´em all, but I ain´t no one´s slave ´Cause when the rubber hits the road, I´m Independence Dave He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa)
There´s two subpoenas, they´re so mean as to suggest that I´m
The major perpetrator of a minor crime They got my name on their claim, but anyone could see Since I´m never anywhere, it clearly wasn´t me It´s not that I´m so innocent or well-behaved It´s just that I´m the one and only Independence Dave
Woo! He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) Woo! He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) He´s Dave, Independence Dave (Whoa) Woo!
