I`m a saint in a sinner`s body (oh yeah)
an outlaw unto myself
the devil washed his hands of me
and the lord went to look for help
I sleep with one eye open
I carry a gun to church
I drive on an out of state licence
with the wheels spinning in the dirt

But I was born this way
made of old creek water and clay
if I could change I`d change today
but I was born this way
cause I was born this way

They say goodness it comes to everyone
and beauty is a flaming torch 
that lights up the path through the garden of sin
that leads to heaven`s porch
I saw a lot of pretty things along the way
and I took some bad directions
but I never asked for no one`s help
or hired anyone`s protection

But I was born this way
made of rusty wire staples and hay
if I could change I`d change today
but I was born this way
but I was born this way

I love all men and women
I tell them so every day
but it seems I`m just not good enough for them
they shake their heads and they turn away
I spent some time in hospital
I spent some time in gaol
but I was denied of my legal rights
on account of having no fingernails

But I was born this way
I smell of someone whose never prayed
if I could change I`d change today
but I was born this way
but I was born this way
but I was born this way
but I was born this way
