[Verse 1]

"Son," she said, "have I got a little story for you

What you thought was your daddy was nothing but a…

While you were sitting home alone at age thirteen

Your real daddy was dyin'

Sorry you didn't see him, but I'm glad we talked"

[Chorus]

Oh, I, oh, I'm still alive

Hey, I, oh, I'm still alive

Hey, I, oh, I'm still alive

Hey, oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]

While she walks slowly across a young man's room

She said, "I'm ready for you"

Why, I can't remember anything to this very day

'Cept the look, the look

Oh, you know where, now I can't see, I just stare

[Chorus]

I, I'm still alive

Hey, I, oh, I'm still alive

Hey, I, hey, I'm still alive

Hey, I, oh, I'm still alive, yeah

[Interlude]

Ooh, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh

Ooh

[Bridge]

"Is something wrong?" she said, well of course there is

"You're still alive," she said, oh, and do I deserve to be?

Is that the question?

And if so, if so who answers? Who answers?

[Chorus]

I, oh, I'm still alive

Hey, I, hey, I'm still alive

Hey, I, hey, I'm still alive

Yeah, I, ooh, I'm still alive!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Guitar Solo]

Ooh yeah, ooh, ooh

Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
