Another day has come and gone, twenty-four hours
In a world where I don´t belong
Another week has passed me by
And it´s not because I didn´t try

Lord knows, I keep on trying but nobody saw me walking, nobody
And I know nobody heard me talking, I don´t know why
I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong
Yeah, I gotta do wrong before they notice me
Yeah, mhm

Another job that I can´t get
A nice apartment where the landlord just won´t rent
And I go to bed, but my sleep won´t come, oh, oh, oh
My body´s empty and my soul is numb

Sad news, nobody saw me walking, oh no, no, no
Nobody heard me talking
Tell me why I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong
I gotta do wrong before they notice me
Little old me, mhm

Yeah, hey, yeah
I´m just a number and not a man
So if I´m crazy, well, heh, who´s to blame?

No, not me, when nobody saw me walking, no, no
Nobody heard me talking
I believe I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong

I gotta do wrong before they notice me

Lord, hear me now
Oh, I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong
I gotta do wrong before they notice me
Yeah, they must be blind (Ain´t it a shame?)
When I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong
I gotta do wrong before the people notice me
I hope you don´t mind if I say this one more time
Come on and help me, y´all
I gotta do wrong (Yeah), I gotta do wrong (Yeah)
I gotta do wrong (Yeah) before they notice me
Ah, maybe don´t see me out there (Keep on singing the song)
I gotta do wrong, I gotta do wrong
I gotta do wrong before they notice me
