|
Maybe |
|
Wretched hands or pockets full of gold |
|
But I don't mind |
|
Cause it will buy salvation for my soul |
|
Well I'm headed for Babylon |
|
And don't you get in my way |
|
If I could only find |
|
My pot of gold at the rainbow's end |
|
Well then I would be happy |
|
Gather unto myself |
|
Enough for my first million |
|
Well then I would be happy |
|
Yes then I could be happy |
|
Oh I know could be happy |
|
Yes I know I would be happy then |
|
She gives everything I need to take and more |
|
But it's not enough |
|
Cause lust can only be replayed so far |
|
So I turn for relief elsewhere |
|
Until I need her no more |
|
If I just had his wife |
|
To add to my menagerie |
|
Oh then I would be happy |
|
Close to the other side |
|
Up where the grass is greener |
|
Oh then would be happy |
|
Yes then I could be happy |
|
Oh I know I could be happy |
|
Yes I know I would be happy then |
|
Now I have gained |
|
All I want but still no peace of mind |
|
Whatever to blame |
|
For a world which only |
|
Worships the bottom line |
|
Well I finally made it to Babylon |
|
Won't let the sea breeze change |
|
If I just close my eyes |
|
And let my spirit drift away |
|
Well I think I would be happy |
|
Cross to the other side |
|
With the burning gates of hell |
|
Well I think I would be happy |
|
Yes then I could be happy |
|
Oh I know I could be happy |
|
Yes I know I would be happy then |
|
Oh yeah |
|
I would be happy again |
|
Oh yeah I would be happy |
|
Well I know I would be so happy |
|
Oh oh oh oh I would be happy |
