make me, go ahead and make me
you're never gonna fo-fo-fo-fo-forsake me
why don't you make me

step into the light, say goodbye tonight
there'll always be another day to walk in the sun
sometimes everyone has a hand on a gun
another day another dollar
who will lead and who will follow

beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse
beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse
beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse to death

make me, go ahead and make me
you're never gonna forsake me
why don't you make me

step in to the light, say goodbye tonight
there'll always be another chance to do it again
from the fire into the pan, from your pocket into your hand
another day another penny
never thought we'd have so many

beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse
beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse
beating a dead horse, beating a dead horse to death

make me, go ahead and make me
you're never gonna forsake me
why don't you make me
