Livin' In America - Black 47[00:00:00]

Oh it's 6 o'clock and it's time to rock[00:00:05]

And me head is beating like a drum[00:00:09]

In the cold grey light[00:00:13]

Ah i feel like shite[00:00:16]

And i can't remember last night's fun[00:00:18]

Then the foreman says[00:00:22]

Come on now boys[00:00:25]

Stick your fingers down[00:00:27]

Your throat and get to work[00:00:29]

Hello i wish to Christ[00:00:32]

I'd stayed home last night[00:00:34]

Instead of drinking in America[00:00:36]

Oh i knock down walls with big iron balls[00:00:41]

And i mix cement by the ton[00:00:45]

With me tongue hanging out[00:00:50]

For a bottle of stout[00:00:52]

Sweating bullets in the Brooklyn sun[00:00:55]

Then i think of her up on Kingsbridge Road[00:00:59]

Did she mean what she said last night[00:01:04]

Oh Mammy dear[00:01:08]

We're all mad over here[00:01:11]

Living in America[00:01:13]

On me way downtown[00:01:27]

I think of that clown[00:01:29]

And the things that he said last night[00:01:31]

Did he mean'em at all[00:01:35]

Or was it just drink talk[00:01:38]

Oh i must look a terrible sight[00:01:40]

Put me makeup on as[00:01:45]

I watch the sun rise high over Fordham Road[00:01:47]

Oh Mammy dear[00:01:54]

We're all mad over here[00:01:56]

Living in America[00:01:59]

Ah the kids aren't dressed[00:02:03]

And the house is a mess[00:02:05]

And the yuppies are networking again[00:02:08]

Kiss their darlin's goodbye[00:02:12]

Oh we'll be late tonight[00:02:14]

But we should be home by eleven[00:02:17]

Oh me little dears dry up your tears[00:02:21]

Your parents are too busy making money[00:02:26]

Oh Mammy dear[00:02:31]

We're all mad over here[00:02:33]

Living in America[00:02:35]

Working with the black man[00:02:40]

Dominican and Greek[00:02:42]

In the snows of January[00:02:45]

Or the drenching August heat[00:02:46]

No sick days or benefits[00:02:49]

And for Christ sakes don't get hurt[00:02:51]

The quacks over here won't patch you up[00:02:53]

Unless they see the bucks upfront[00:02:56]

Looking after babies from crack of dawn'til dusk[00:02:58]

Changing dirty nappies and cleaning up the house[00:03:02]

Is this what i've been educated for[00:03:07]

To wipe the arse of every baby in America[00:03:10]

Now the day is done take the subway home[00:03:53]

Squashed up like some sardine in a can[00:03:57]

In the Blarney Stone drink a gallon of foam[00:04:02]

Till i'm feeling half meself again[00:04:06]

If she comes tonight[00:04:11]

I'll ask her outright[00:04:13]

Ah what the hell[00:04:15]

Nothing ventured nothing gained[00:04:16]

And if she takes a chance[00:04:20]

She might find romance[00:04:22]

Now she's living in America[00:04:25]

See him standing there with the ring in his ear[00:04:29]

And the grin on the side of his face[00:04:34]

With the fag in his mouth[00:04:38]

Oh i should watch out[00:04:40]

For they say that he's a real hard case[00:04:43]

Should i take me chance or say no thanks[00:04:47]

Ah what the hell[00:04:51]

Nothing ventured nothing gained[00:04:53]

Oh Mammy dear[00:04:56]

We're all mad over here[00:04:59]

Living in America[00:05:01]

Oh Mammy dear [00:05:05]

We're all mad over here[00:05:08]

Living in America[00:05:10]

Oh Mammy dear [00:05:14]

We're all mad over here[00:05:17]

Living in America[00:05:20]

Oh Mammy dear [00:05:23]

We're all mad over here[00:05:26]

Living in America[00:05:28]
