When you open your eyes To a brand new morning And the sun shines Above you You pull on your breeches and say Oh well It's the start of a brand new day For birds of prey You live and learn your life away But there below, your body must go Against the grain Like an old mule train Keeps pulling hard against the Here boy, there boy The boss got you running everywhere boy 'Ya got no money and ya got less sense And you ain't going nowhere' But there below your body must go For birds of prey You live and learn your life away But there below your body must go Against the grain Like an old mule train Keeps pulling hard against the Here boy, there boy The boss got you running everywhere boy 'Ya got no money and ya got less sense And you ain't going nowhere' But there below your body will go At the end of the day When you look around you And the sun sets Deep inside you Dust off your breeches and say 'Oh well' Say goodnight to the man in the moon The sandman's on his way
