"back toward the turn of the century [00:00:02]
You know [00:00:05]
Mark twain took a trip around the world on a steamship[00:00:05]
And he wrote a book called 'following the equator' [00:00:09]
And the opening page has a dedicat[00:00:12]
Hat says 'be good and you will be lonesome '[00:00:15]
Which for me still seems to work in the fabulous eighties "[00:00:19]
Jason mason hears the sound[00:00:39]
The whistle blows in congo town[00:00:42]
And the mail boat's in mail boat's in[00:00:45]
Brings him things from oh so far[00:00:52]
Old magazines and snicker bars[00:00:55]
A simple man a simple plan[00:00:59]
The world's too big to understand[00:01:02]
Be good and you will be lonesome[00:01:06]
Be lonesome and you will be free[00:01:12]
Live a lie and you will live to regret it[00:01:19]
That's what livin' is to me[00:01:24]
That's what livin' is to me[00:01:27]
On a timeless beach in hispaniola[00:01:32]
Young girl sips a diet cola[00:01:36]
She's worlds apart worlds apart[00:01:39]
Spirit of the black king still[00:01:46]
Reverberates through haitian hills[00:01:49]
He rules the sea and all the fish[00:01:53]
What if he had a tv dish [00:01:56]
Be good and you will be lonesome[00:01:59]
Be lonesome and you will be free[00:02:06]
Live a lie and you will live to regret it[00:02:12]
That's what livin' is to me[00:02:17]
That's what livin' is to me[00:02:21]
Now in the far off regions the foreign legion[00:02:26]
Keep the thieves and the predators at bay[00:02:32]
While closer to home some bad boys still roam[00:02:39]
The streets aren't safe so give it one more day[00:02:46]
One more day[00:02:51]
One more day[00:02:58]
Stories from my favorite books[00:03:13]
Still take on many different looks[00:03:16]
And I'm gone again home again[00:03:19]
The time has come the walrus said[00:03:26]
And little oysters hide their head[00:03:29]
My twain of thought is loosely bound[00:03:32]
I guess it's time to mark this down[00:03:36]
Be good and you will be lonesome[00:03:39]
Be lonesome and you will be free[00:03:46]
Live a lie and you will live to regret it[00:03:52]
That's what livin' is to me[00:03:57]
That's what livin' is to me[00:04:00]
That's what livin' is to me[00:04:04]
That's what livin' is to me[00:04:07]
