Yesterday was a very nice day indeed
I got up out of bed went outside
And brushed my teeth
Put on dirty clothes and go back to work
I got to make the money to give the money
Away at the rich man's store
I lived on a place they call South Front Street
It ain't on a map you couldn't me if you tried
We've got a horse a train
And a garden in the back yard
It's a rotten paradise at times i think i'm gonna die
Cause they try to drag me down
Cause they try to drag me down
But i get back up i get back up again
But i get back up i get back up again
Here comes the power man
With the water man by his side
Looks like the telephone man gave them a ride
They killed my house and left me this way
I bought a kerosine lanter
And baby you know i don't bath
Cause they try to drag me down
Cause they try to drag me down
But i get back up i get back up again
I get back up i get back up again
I get back up i get back up again
I get back up i get back up again
I get back up i get back up again
Yesterday was a very nice day indeed
Yesterday was a very nice day indeed
Oh thank you
