Nation Of Shopkeepers - Graham Parker[00:00:00]

I come from a nation of shopkeepers[00:00:51]

Window cleaners [00:01:01]

Turf accountants and book keepers[00:01:04]

I run through the station[00:01:10]

Where the road sweepers[00:01:14]

Clean the debris [00:01:20]

Sweep the tickets near the rail sleepers[00:01:22]

And as usual I'm running late[00:01:28]

But I can't wait[00:01:32]

It's not important anyhow[00:01:34]

As usual it's not that great[00:01:37]

Just seeing a mate[00:01:41]

In a pub across town[00:01:43]

Yes I come from a nation of shopkeepers[00:01:46]

Car mechanics plumbers[00:01:57]

Mates and inn keepers[00:01:59]

I run I run I run[00:02:05]

Down the tow path[00:02:08]

Past the lock keepers[00:02:10]

In my pinstripe my dickie[00:02:15]

Bow and my brothel creepers[00:02:18]

And you can laugh at my hair[00:02:23]

The clothes I wear[00:02:27]

No they're not all the rage[00:02:29]

But I'm not the global type[00:02:32]

Don't wanna act[00:02:36]

Upon the world stage[00:02:38]

Yes I come[00:03:18]

From a nation of shopkeepers[00:03:22]

Washer women [00:03:28]

Hod carriers and wicket keepers[00:03:30]

I run I run I run[00:03:36]

Through the sparthing[00:03:40]

Past the road sweepers[00:03:41]

In my flat cap [00:03:47]

My plus 4's to my Mini Cooper[00:03:49]

And you can't expect[00:03:54]

Me to put up a fight[00:03:56]

No I'm just sitting still[00:04:00]

My eyes are all over you[00:04:04]

But my hand remains in the till[00:04:07]
