Dear landlord |
|
Please don't put a price on my soul |
|
My burden is heavy |
|
And my dreams are beyond control |
|
When that steam-boat whistle blows |
|
I'm gonna give you all i've got to give |
|
And i do hope you receive it, well |
|
Depending on the way you feel that you live |
|
Dear landlord |
|
Please heed these words that i speak |
|
I know you've suffered much |
|
But in this you are not so unique |
|
All of us at times, we might work too hard |
|
Too heavy, too fast and too much |
|
And anyone can fill their life up with things |
|
They can see but just cannot touch |
|
Dear landlord |
|
Please don't dismiss my case |
|
I'm not about to argue |
|
I'm not about to move to no other place |
|
Now each of us has our own special gift |
|
And you know this was meant to be true |
|
And if you don't underestimate me |
|
I won't underestimate you |
