Old Joe Riley - Dean Brody (迪恩·布罗迪)[00:00:00]

Old Joe Riley owned a fishin' shack[00:00:15]

With the ocean out front and the bay out back[00:00:18]

He had a little boat and a fisherman's tan[00:00:22]

When he wasn't out fishin' he was sittin' in the sand[00:00:25]

Then the big boys came and they offered him millions[00:00:31]

To put up some condos or a swank hotel[00:00:35]

Old Joe Riley told them no thanks anyway[00:00:38]

I could use the money but I just can't sell[00:00:42]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:00:45]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:00:49]

Come on[00:00:52]

He said I've seen the cities eatin' up small towns[00:01:00]

Where you can't smell the breeze and it's cement ground[00:01:03]

You pay to park your car but it ain't safe to walk[00:01:07]

Nobody looks you in the eye don't speak don't talk[00:01:10]

So when the big boys came and they offered him millions[00:01:16]

To put up some condos or a swank hotel[00:01:20]

Old Joe Riley told them no thanks anyway[00:01:23]

I could use the money but I just can't sell[00:01:27]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:01:31]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:01:34]

Here we go[00:01:37]

Yeah the bank lock box there's a deed to some land[00:01:52]

With his widow's gold ring a few grains of sand[00:01:56]

Joe Riley's granddaughter's gonna face a big choice[00:02:00]

I hope she remembers her granddaddy's voice[00:02:03]

When the big boys came and they offered him millions[00:02:08]

To put up some condos or a swank hotel[00:02:12]

Old Joe Riley told them no thanks anyway[00:02:16]

I could use the money but I just can't sell[00:02:19]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:02:23]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:02:27]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:02:30]

A low rent heaven beats a high dollar hell[00:02:34]

Come on[00:02:37]
