Lyrics

Can't get a job, I can't tie down a living, can't get by on the pittance they're giving, can't afford a taxi from Otley to Leeds, But that's not the weight I carry with me. Can't get a job, I can't tie down a living, can't get by on the pittance they're giving. I can't get a job, I can't tie down a living, can't get by on the pittance they're giving. can't afford a pasty from the Gregg's bakery, That's not the stone I carry with me. not the weight I carry with me I'll build it from matches, I'll build it from straw, I'd build it from bricks if only I could afford, I'll build you house for to live my love. I'll build you house for to live. A box of cedar, A box of pine, A hole in the ground would do just fine, I'll dig you a grave for to sleep my love. dig you a grave for to sleep my love. I can't get a job, I can't tie down a living, can't get by on the pittance they're giving. can't afford a pasty from the Gregg's bakery, That's not the weight I carry with me. It's not the weight I carry with me.
