You know just the other morning 
I was hanging around in my house
I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked 
I was checkin' it out 
Just then a friend of mine came through the door 
Said she never pegged me for a scumbag before 
She said she didn't ever want to see me any more 
And I still don't know why 

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy 
I just want to live until I've gotta die 
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try 
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright 

Now maybe I'm dirty 
And maybe I smoke a little dope 
It ain't like I'm going on TV 
And tearing up pictures of the Pope 
I know I get wild and I know I get drunk 
Well, it ain't like I got a bunch of bodies in my trunk 
My old man used to call me a no good punk
And I still don't know why

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy 
I just want to live until I've gotta die 
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try 
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright 

You know, just the other night 
These cops pulled me over outside a bar      
They turned on their lights 
And they ordered me out of my car 
Man, I was only kidding when I called them a couple of dicks 
But still they made me do the stupid human tricks 
Now I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of dumb hicks
And I still don't know why 

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy 
I just want to live until I've gotta die 
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try 
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright
