Man Of The Earth Lyrics

The city blues they strike again

Another worker drops his pen

He wants to be done

And out on the run

Away fromhe curse, he'd swap all his worth

To be a man of the earth

For 2 or 3 weeks of the year

An Easter Bunny brings Christmas cheer

He's out of his head and toasting the dead

And feeling much worse, he'd swap all his worth

To be a man of the earth

To swap all his worth

To be a man of the earth

Words become the man if only he could write a sonnet

He'd place his life upon it to be a man of the earth

A man of the earth, he'd swap all his worth

To be a man of the earth

The wife and kids are already there

They're polishing his wicker chair it's looking so bleak

At the end of the week he'll be needing a nurse

He'd swap all his worth to be a man of the earth

A man of the earth

Words become the man if only he could write a sonnet

He'd place his life upon it to be a man of the earth

A man of the earth, he'd swap all his worth

To be a man of the earth

A man of the earth
