Virgin Prunes - Ballad Of The Man lyrics

Once I was rich but I'm better off with a satisfied mind I go down to the river, see the boats go sailing down I throw stones in the river, it keeps me satisfied, satisfied I live day by day, take every day as it comes Some are good and some are bad Spanish Johnny came in from the underworld last night Looking for a gang to rob a bank Looking for some easy money He said "Do you wanna join my gang" I said "You must be joking" Spanish Johnny got caught And went to jail to be a nice fellow for a long time I just live from day to day Knowing I'm better off than a bank-robber I believe, I believe in you I'm better off as I am
