You Were Barefoot
You were barefoot roaming the streets
Now I've got you, you need a chauffeur
You were barefoot picking up pennies
Now I've got you, you ask for dollar bills
You were dirt poor gathering wild herbs
Now I've got you, you need golden rings
I sentenced death to a thousand years in jail
So you'd be free to spend time with me
I rolled my dice and I got six and five
The cops in the corner rolled me five by five
Now I've got you, you need a chauffeur
You were barefoot picking up pennies
Now I've got you, you ask for dollar bills
You were dirt poor gathering wild herbs
Now I've got you, you need golden rings
I sentenced death to a thousand years in jail
So you'd be free to spend time with me
I rolled my dice and I got six and five
The cops in the corner rolled me five by five
