The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Livin' on the streets
I ain't got a dime
People look at me and say
I'm livin' on borrowed time
Everything I own
Isn't worth a dime
Spend all my time
And my money gettin' high
I don't really care
About what people say and do
I live my life
By my own set of rules
Everything I do
I'm livin' just to die
I'm livin' by the laws
Of a gun and a knife
Within the perimeter of this world
I just don't feel real right
I'm livin' by the laws
Of a gun and a knife
My soul cannot be tamed
I'm livin' just to die
I'm living by myself
On the outskirts of life
Everything I say
Is for the make
I don't need no work
Cause I'm stealin' everything
I hustle for my keep
I steal for my pay
Everything I do
Is what I do today
I'm comin' round
Take what I can take
But she's gonna be mine today

My soul cannot be tamed
Cause I'm livin' just to die
I'm livin' by myself
On the outskirts of life
Within the perimeter of this world
I just don't feel real right
I'm livin' by the laws
Of a gun and a knife
My soul cannot be tamed
I'm livin' just to die
I'm livin' by myself
On the outskirts of life
Around around and down
Live from state to state
I don't know where I'll be
From day to day
I'm on the road
Never slowin' down
Don't stop for nothin'
For my feet get hit the ground
I'm singin' with my gun
And I'm runnin' with the best
I don't care about nothin'
Cause I only care myself
Everything I do
Is what I wanna try
But I'm livin' by myself
On the outskirts of life
Within the perimeter of this world
I just don't feel real right
People look at me and say
I'm livin' on borrowed time
Within the perimeter of this world
I just don't feel real right
I'm livin' by the laws
Of a gun and a knife
