I won't ask for a song from a killer
Who lives and dies by the sword
I won't ask a priest for the answer
He's grown weary serving his Lord
You gotta ask the right question
You gotta ask the right guy
I won't ask a judge for mercy
Not with that look on his face
I won't ask the queen to curtsy
I must remember my place
You gotta ask the right question
You gotta ask the right guy
How will you know where to go
If you don't ask someone who knows
You gotta ask the right question
You gotta ask the right guy
How will you know where to go
If you don't ask someone who knows
I won't ask a dealer his business
He's always got something to sell
I won't ask any church for forgiveness
They need to confess for themselves
How will you know where to go
If you don't ask someone who knows
