Lyrics
Hey baby, if you're falling down, I know what's good for you all day
Expressing awareness of the listener's struggles and claiming to know what's beneficial throughout the day.
Are you worried what your friends see
Pondering if the listener is concerned about public perception and whether being associated with the speaker might harm their reputation.
And will it ruin your reputation loving me?
Questioning the potential impact on the listener's reputation if they choose to love the speaker, suggesting a rebellious or unconventional nature.
'Cause I'm a dirty white boy, yeah a dirty white boy, a dirty white boy
Reiterating the self-identification as a rebellious and unconventional individual, the "dirty white boy."
Don't drive no big black car, don't like no Hollywood movie stars
Rejecting symbols of wealth and fame, indicating a preference for a simpler lifestyle.
You want me to be true to you, you don't give a damn what I do to you
Highlighting the listener's desire for fidelity while expressing the speaker's indifference to societal expectations.
I'm just a dirty white boy (dirty white boy) dirty white boy (dirty white boy)
Emphasizing the speaker's identity as a "dirty white boy" through repetition.
Dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Continuing the assertion of the speaker's identity as a rebellious individual.
Well I'm a dirty white boy, (dirty white boy), dirty white boy, yeah dirty white boy
Reaffirming the speaker's identity and rebellious nature.
A dirty white boy
Repeating the declaration of being a "dirty white boy."
I've been in trouble since I don't know when
Admitting a history of trouble and anticipating future difficulties.
I'm in trouble now and I know somehow I'll find trouble again
Acknowledging current troubles and foreseeing a recurrence of challenges.
I'm a loner but I'm never alone
Describing oneself as a loner who is never truly alone.
Every night I get one step closer to the danger zone
Expressing a gradual progression toward a risky or hazardous situation.
'Cause I'm a dirty white boy,(dirty white boy) yeah dirty white boy (dirty white boy)
Repeating the assertion of being a "dirty white boy" and emphasizing the rebellious nature.
I'm a dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Reiterating the identity as a rebellious "dirty white boy."
Come on come on boy, (dirty white boy) white boy (dirty white boy)
Encouraging someone, possibly a fellow rebel, to join in the rebellious identity.
I'm a dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Reaffirming the speaker's identity as a rebellious individual.
Hey I'm a dirty white boy (dirty white boy) yeah I'm a dirty white boy
Affirming once again the speaker's identity as a "dirty white boy."
(Dirty white boy) dirty white boy yeah
Concluding with a repetition of the identity and rebellious nature.
