Well I wouldn't buy no merchandise
And I wouldn't go to war Am
And I mixed with other colours
But the nurse doesn't care E
And I hide under blankets
Or did I run away G
I really can't remember
Last time I saw the light of day
F E
But I remember Sam
D
'cause he was like me

F G
C G
Scream like a baby
C Bm
Sam was a gun
F#m G
And I never knew his last name
Bb C D
And we never had no fun

Well they came down hard on the faggots
And they came down hard on the street Am
They came down harder on Sam
And they all knew he was beat E
He was thrown into the wagon
Blindfolded, chains, and they stomped on us G
And took away our clothes and things
And pumped us full of strange drugs E
And oh I saw Sam falling
Spitting in their eyes G
But now I lay me down to sleep
And now I close my eyes
F E
Now I'm learning to be
D
a part of society
C Bb

Scream like a baby

Sam was a gun
F#m G
And I never knew his last name
Bb C D
And we never had no fun
C B
No athletic program,
A# A
no discipline, no book
G# G
He just sat in the backseat
F# F
swearing he'd seek revenge
E D#
But he jumped into the furnace
D
Singing old songs we loved
F# C#
Scream like a baby
F# Fm
Sam was a gun

And I never knew his last name
