Not Fakin It

Jolly Ollie was a stool pigeon

On the payroll of the F.B.I.

Reverend Jim sold instant religion

With a license from the man in the sky

Billy the Kid was a gunslinger

Edgar Wallace was a dead ringer

Me I'm just a rock 'n' roll singer

Keyhole John was a bird watcher

Had a telephoto lens in each eye

Jack the Ripper was a cool stalker

But his birds no longer fly

James Joyce was a mudslinger

Jesus Christ was a forgiver

Me I'm just a rock 'n' roll singer

I'm not fakin it

Foolin myself that I'm makin it

I'm not fakin it

Tricky Dicky was a fast talker

But his promises were always a lie

Nostradamus was a doom watcher

Predicted when we're gonna die

Cleopatra was a love giver

Jesse James was a born killer

Me I'm just a rock 'n' roll singer

I'm not fakin it

Foolin myself that I'm makin it

I'm not fakin it
