Lyrics

I never bother to ask I never bother with "please" I never bother with "'Scuse me miss, beggin' pardon", darlin' That ain't for me I like to do things my way Or I don't do them at all 'Cause first they ask you to compromise And then the next breath demandin' you crawl I guess that makes me a heathen Quite possibly Oh, darling, I am a heathen Oh, evil-hearted me He says I'm covered in shame Says I'm covered in sin But he didn't mind my ways last night And he sure ain't mind my skin But darlin' I never talk You know that I never tell I'll be your tight-lipped confidante Your silent jezebel Hell, I guess that makes me a heathen Something rarer than dirt I hear 'em callin' me heathen Ooh, like they think it hurts Jesus came to me one day, and he washed my sins away But then I caught sight of those city lights I was led astray 'Cause darlin', I am a heathen, oh yes Bitter to the bone But if I am the heathen Then why won't you leave me alone? Leave me alone Go and leave me alone, yes baby You better leave me alone, yeah baby Go and leave alone, yeah baby You better leave me alone Ba da-da da Ba da-da da, di-da, di-da Da da-da da da Ba da da da Ba la-la la, li-la, li-la Ba la-la la-la la (la-la-la) La la la-la la La-la, la la-la la-la la La-la-la la
