Bob Dylan
Ain’t Gonna Go to Hell for Anybody
I ain't gonna go to hell for anybody

I can manipulate people as well as anybody
Bust ‘em and burn ‘em, twist ‘em and turn ‘em
I can make believe I’m in love with anybody
Hold ‘em and control ‘em, squeeze ‘em and tease ‘em
But I know it satisfies the flesh that it feeds
I’ve been down that road, I know what it leads

But I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
Not today, not tonight, not tomorrow, no never, no way!

I can twist the truth as well as anybody
Wine ‘em and dine ‘em, find ‘em and blind ‘em
I can mislead people as well as anybody
I got the vision to cause any kind of division
But I know that (?) control
To gain the whole world but give up my soul

But I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
Not for father, not for mother, not for sister, not for father, no way!
Smoke arises for ever, on a one-way ticket to burn
A place reserved for the devil
And for all those that love evil
A place of darkness and shade, you can never return

I can rob and steal from people as well as anybody
I know how to do it, I can see through it
I can influence people as well as anybody
I know what to tell 'em, I can why 'em(?) or well 'em(?)
The lawman won't get me with his tricks or his cards
I can see through man’s delusions, I see through his facades

But I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
Not for father, not for mother, not for sister, not for father, no way!

I can manipulate people as well as anybody
Bust ‘em and burn ‘em, twist ‘em and turn ‘em
I can make believe I’m in love with almost anybody
Hold ‘em and control ‘em, squeeze ‘em and tease ‘em
But it don’t suit my purposes and it ain’t my goal
To gain the whole world, but give up my soul

But I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
I ain’t gonna go to hell for anybody
Not for father, not for mother, not for sister, not for father, no way!
