Billy Bragg & Wilco - Mermaid Avenue Vol. III

Give Me A Nail

Give me a nail and I'll nail it
Give me a ship and I'll sail it
Give me a bugle and I'll toot it
Give me a gun and I'll shoot it

Give me the work and I'll do it
Give me the stew and I'll stew it
Give me the bell and I'll ring it
Give me the song and I'll sing it

Give me the words and I'll talk 'em
Give me the miles and I'll walk 'em
Give me the crop and I'll grow it
Give me a row and I'll hoe it

Give me a life and I'll live it
Give me a life and I'll give it
Give me a war and I'm in it
Give me a world and I'll win it
