Country Of Man Lyrics

Country Of Man lyrics

I started out in 1954, 

"What the hell was it all for?"

He asked
himself why- 

"What the hell an I gonna do now,

drink gin all night
or fight?"

He says this, he says that- 

why should I believe any of
it?



I'm living in the country of man. 

I seen 'em lying down
on their hands

I'm living in the country of man. 

I seen 'em lying,
dying instead.



Later on in 1955

Charlie was working the
Roosevelt, so was I.

"What the hell am I gonna do now, 

raise these
kids or leave the wife?"

He says this, he says that- 

why should I
believe any of it?



I'm living in the country of man. 

I seen
'em lying down on their hands

I'm living in the country of man. 

I
seen 'em lying, dying instead.



Buh, buh, buh, buh, Buh, buh, buh,


buh, buh,Buh, buh



And the president says, 

"Buh, buh,
buh, buh, Buh, buh, 

buh, buh, buh, Buh, buh"



The premier
replies: 

"Buh, buh, buh, buh,Buh, buh, 

buh, buh buh, Buh,
buh"



Then the papers say, 

"Buh, buh, buh, buh,Buh, buh,


buh, buh buh, Buh, buh....
