I recognized you on the 6 o'clock news,
you were runnin' from the law.
I thought about callin' the line for the wanted,

but right then your truck stalled.
They pulled you to the ground
in front of the whole crowd,

like some kind of western show.
They I poured me a drink,
and all I could think was,

I'd rather let you go.

Chorus:

The world's gone crazy, cray-ya-yazy
But it won't change me, no no
It's a damn shame,

I don't know who to blame.
The world's gone crazy,
but it won't change me.


The other day, I was a'whistlin away,
shopping at the grocery store,

when a man with a gun, under the lunchtime sun
hollered get to the floor,
so we did what he said, he took the money and fled

and everyone was running wild,
but me I stood up, and I brushed my shirt off,
kept a'shoppin down the cereal aisle.


Chorus:
The world's gone crazy, cray-ya-yazy

But it won't change me, no no
It's a damn shame,
I don't know who to blame.

The world's gone crazy,
but it won't change me.


(instrumental)

Chorus:

The world's gone crazy, cray-ya-yazy
But it won't change me, no no
And it's a damn shame,

I don't know who to blame.
The world's gone crazy,
but it won't change me.


The world's gone cray-yay-yazy
But it won't change me, nooo oohhh

mm hmmm
