I Didn’t Know Myself Lyrics by NRBQ

1969

I didn't know myself, I didn't know my name
But the time is right, And I'll play the game
For I see it's they who took my mind away
Just before I'd say what I had to say
So I'll feed them back with their fiery play
And I'll pray and pray that they'll just sit down
And listen to what I’ve to say
And if they do refuse, then I'll go to stay
On my sadly way
For to take there word is to give away
Of my soul that I've been a giftedly so given
Da da da da da, da da da da da da da (Yeah)
For to take their word is to give away, (Yeah)
Of my soul, la, la, la. That I've been a giftedly so given
