On the day I was born, a hard rain fell
A tear formed up in Heaven, someone smiled down there in Hell
Mama died on my birthnight, never had no dad
From young and tender age, stole everything I had
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
Best stay far from me if you can
Well, I mean and I'm only, I'm gonna leave you lonely
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
Dealin' cards for the devil, runnin' with the wolves
Breakin' all them pretty hearts, laughin' at you fools
When I gamble, I cheat, I steal just for the thrill
If that's what it takes to win, I crush you 'neath my wheels
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
Best stay far from me if you can
Well, I mean and I'm only, I'm gonna leave you lonely
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
Never had a heart, never had a home
Only thing I ever had is the need for me to roam
Ain't never growin' old, I'm much too mean to die
You can try to run from me, but you can never hide
Gonna take what I want from you, so give me what I need
I'll leave you on the side of the road 'cause no one rides for free
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
Best stay far from me if you can
Well, I mean and I'm only, I'm gonna leave you lonely
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
I'm a wheelin', dealin', lyin', cheatin' man
