Cat Stevens - But I Might Die Tonight lyrics

Don't want to work away

Doing just what they all say

"Work hard, boy and you'll find

One day you'll have a job like mine"

'Cause I know for sure

Nobody should be that poor

To say yes or sink low

Because you happen to say so

Say so, you say so

I don't want to work away

Doing just what they all say

"Work hard, boy and you'll find

One day you'll have a job like mine

Job like mine, a job like mine"

"Be wise, look ahead

Use your eyes", he said

"Be straight, think right"

But I might die tonight
