Sweet child in time
You'll see the line
The line that's drawn between
Good and bad
See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying
Ohh taking toll
If you've been bad
Oh Lord I bet you have
And you've not been hit
Oh by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes
Ooohhhh bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Oooooo ooooooo ooooooo
Ooo, ooo ooo

Sweet child in time
You'll see the line
The line that's drawn between

See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying

If you've been bad

And you've not been hit
Oh by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes
