there we stood and there we left
|
outside the flashing neon sign
|
with the smell of cheap cigars
|
and the hope of sweet perfume
|
and his heart it was reeling
|
with the thrill of it all
|
all to do and only hours
|
he said all this is all yours
|
|
you can have it all
|
you can take it all away
|
from where we left off
|
living it all your way
|
if you'll stand in my shoes
|
if you'll do what i do
|
on wages day
|
on wages day
|
|
and the cap from disneyland
|
that his cousin she brought back
|
stays open in his hand
|
from one week to another
|
and this long narrow land
|
is full of possibility
|
all to do and only hours
|
he said all this is all yours
|
|
you can have it all
|
you can take it all away
|
from where we left off
|
living it all your way
|
if you'll stand in my shoes
|
if you'll do what i do
|
on wages day
|
on wages day
|
