Nazareth — Not Faking It

[Verse 1] Slim Jim was a stool pigeon On the payroll of the FBI Reverend Fred sold instant religion With a license from the man in the sky Billy the Kid was a gunslinger Edgar Wallace was a dead ringer Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer [Verse 2] Keyhole Pete was a bird watcher Had a telephoto lens in each eye Jack the Ripper was a cool stalker But his birds no longer fly James Joyce was a mudslinger And Jesus Christ was a forgiver Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer [Chorus] I'm not fakin' it Foolin' myself that I'm makin' it I'm not fakin' it I'm not fakin' it [Verse 3] Tricky Dicky was a fast talker But his promises were always a lie Nostradamus was a doom watcher Predicted when we're gonna die Cleopatra was a love giver Jesse James was a born killer Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer [Chorus] I'm not fakin' it Foolin' myself that I'm makin' it I'm not fakin' it I'm not fakin' it [Guitar Solo] [Verse 1] Slim Jim was a stool pigeon On the payroll of the FBI Reverend Fred sold instant religion With a license from the man in the sky Billy the Kid was a gunslinger Edgar Wallace was a dead ringer Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer [Chorus] I'm not fakin' it Foolin' myself that I'm makin' it I'm not fakin' it I'm not fakin' it [Outro] Fakin' it Not fakin' it [Repeat to fade]
