Dear Landlord |
| Dear landlord |
| Please don’t put a price on my soul |
| My burden is heavy |
| My dreams are beyond control |
| When that steamboat whistle blows |
| I’m gonna give you all I got to give |
| And I do hope you receive it well |
| Depending on the way you feel that you live. |
| Dear landlord |
| Please heed these words that I speak |
| I know you’ve suffered much |
| But in this you are not so unique |
| All of us, at times we might work too hard |
| To have it too fast and too much |
| And anyone can fill his life up With things he can see but he just cannot touch. |
| Dear landlord |
| Please don’t dismiss my case |
| I’m not about to argue |
| I’m not about to move to no other place |
| Now, each of us has his own special gift |
| And you know this was meant to be true |
| And if you don’t underestimate me I won’t underestimate you. |
