Lyrics:
got a new recruit to this land of hope and glory
Hands behind backs and legs apart and tell us all of your unfortunate story
Who me, sir?
Yes, you sir!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Tried to make it little by little
Tried to make it bit by bit on my own
Quit the job, the grey believers
Another town where
grow
From little things big things grow
Gurindji were working for nothing but rations
Where once they had gathered the wealth of the land
Daily
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by
The great big city's a wondrous toy just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan into an isle of joy
We'll go
They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The Good Book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
a winner of the quick draw.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!
Yeah, it was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
The Fam I ran with born the ghetto legend
Big shot is set on and dead on KingPin
You and Big just kept mad bells ringin'
Cross town niggaz still fryin' I
a great big town
I find it so dreary so dreary
everything looks grey or brown
I want an ocean blue
great big trees
bird's eye view of the Pyrenees
I wanna
Get 'em out by Friday
You don't get paid 'til the last one's well on his way
Get 'em out by Friday
It's important that we keep to schedule, there
Come on down have a look around at rich folks living in a poor folks town
We got no money but we're rich in love that's one thing that we've got
read my mind?
I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light, I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing
The winter days they last forever
And the weekends went by so quick
Went ridin' around this little country town
We were goin' nuts, girl, out in the sticks
a southern girl.
We stared man to man.
I move like a stranger
In this strange land.
She was a round hole,
I was a square peg.
I watched the little
But I spell a P a little bitty E Sweet bop bop bop shoo shoobie doobie doh
In a little round O
Now you add another P a big skinny L There's one more E
get out of Louisiana, just to help me get to Houston town.
There's an uncle there who cares a little about me and he won't let the poor boy down.
Sure
I've seen every little corner of your two bit town
I know
Where I'm going
Bright lights they won't leave me alone
Need a shadow or a hole in the wall
He'd like to know if you and me could help him in some way
A little camouflage and glue to mask the evil that men do
A small diversion caused by two,
a babe
To the highest Stuart of all
Oh rise, arise Mary Hamilton
Arise and tell to me
What thou hast done with thy wee babe
I saw and heard weep by thee
I
They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The Good Book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
All good
It's all good
Big politician telling lies
Restaurant kitchen all full of flies
Don't make a bit of difference, don't see why it should
But
bring
Living in the land of kings
Island style
Where the calm comes down
In my little Big Island town
Kona

times now
I've seen every little corner of your two bit town
I know
Where I'm going
Bright lights they won't leave me alone
Need a shadow
It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
But I've been a workin' man dang near all of my life
I'll keep on workin' long as these
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Tried to make it little by little
Tried to make it bit by bit on my own
Quit the job, the grey believers
Another town where
