I'm a bored boy born in the road
Some say my manners ain't the best
Some of my friends they've been in a whole lot of trouble
Some say i'm no better than the rest
But tell your mama and your papa
Sometimes good guys don't wear white
Everyday i work hard
At night i spend a restless time
With all those rich kids and their lazy money
You can't hold a candle too long
But tell your mama and your papa
Sometimes good guys don't wear white
Good guys bad guys which is which?
The white collar worker or digger in the ditch
Man who's to say who's the better man
Of those two i do the best i can
I'm a bored boy born in the road
Some say my manners ain't the best
Some of my friends they've been in a whole lot of trouble
Some say i'm no better than the rest
But tell your mama and your papa
Sometimes good guys don't wear white
