Ian Gillan A Little Share Of Plenty
A Little Share of Plenty.
----------------------
I haven't got a job because they said
they couldn't employ a no-good freak
I wanted a position at they top
with no training and a two-day week.
I was born into this world and I'm entitled
to the luxuries that I desire
I think I'll go to Mars it may suite me
If the for of life is higher.
Lead me to the land of flood and hunger
Take me to the streets of dust and death
teach me that a little share of plenty
Is better than a small share of less.
I have to sell my car because I never
earn enough to pay the price of fuel
Now I play on my guitar because you understand
That I've got the blues
Now the countries going bad because
the governent is mad you know they just can't see.
I'll go and lock myself away for years
There's nothing here for me
Lead me to the land of flood and hunger
Take me to the streets of dust and death
teach me that a little share of plenty
Is better than a small share of less.
Walkin' through the streets you know I haven't
eaten nothing for a week or two
I imagine the my belly's going to swell
until I can't see my shoes
Maybe I can make it if I see some food
and take it as I'm passing by.
If they catch me they can hang me but please
know they ain't justified.
Lead me to the land of flood and hunger
Take me to the streets of dust and death
teach me that a little share of plenty
Is better than a small share of less.
