You can take away the money
You can take away the gold
You can tell me it's the truth
You know it isn't so

You can say that I'm a vandal
When I ain't done nothing wrong
You can say you've had a good time
When you've really thought it bad

Just let me rock
You can take away the profit
You can give away my share
You can tell me it's a diamond
When it's just a piece of glass

You can tell me I've got nothing
When I hold it in my hand
You can say a scrap of paper
Was a contract that I signed

Just let me rock

You can take away my heroes
You can take away the pride
You can tell me I can trust you
Then you take me for a ride

You can say I'm drinking water
When I'm really drinking wine
You can say I'm really clever
Then you laugh behind my back

Just let me rock
