I was born too late to play in the Rolling Stones I don't know Jimmy Page, I never met Yoko Ono Standing with a Strat, I'm rock and roll's bastard son Go out, get drunk, get laid, have fun I don't got a million dollars, don't drive a Cadillac Gimme half a chance, 'cause I'm not dead yet (Chorus) I'm not dead yet - not dead yet I'm a mad dog fighting with the wall against my back You'd better get a bigger gun, I'm not dead yet I been machine-gunned, hand-gunned, hijacked, left for dead Divebombed, napalmed, nuclear warheaded Dropped from a jet plane with no parachute Shot by a firing squad and raped by a business suit I'm dancing on a landmine, one leg left But I can still crawl and I'm not dead yet Chorus Well, you're bigger, tougher, meaner, rougher Dirtier and uglier and sneakier and trickier You wanna shoot me with a gun, cut me with a knife Take your bare hands and rip out my eyes You kicked me in the balls and bit me in the neck Hit me again, 'cause I'm not dead yet Chorus Well there's a mugger in the alley, there's a sniper in the hall There's a girl at the bar wants to get me by the balls The hangman is hanging if I autograph the noose And Lee Harvey Oswald's brother's on the loose There's a Mafia hitman with a bullet for my back Someday he's gonna get me, but I'm not dead yet I'm not dead yet - not dead yet I'm a wild card waiting in the middle of the deck You'd better get a bigger gun, I'm not dead yet Chorus
