lyrics

Well the purple fades to yellow and the blue is green
You mix ‘em all together and I’m breaking at the seams

Long haired gypsy walkin’ the streets at night
Don’t think with no brain, but you sure put up a fight

Love is new, but life gets old
And that is something everybody’s told

But I know better than you think I do
My woman and I will make it through Uh Huh

Gin and tonic suit me well I’ve been through a living hell
Mama told me life ain’t fair
People are always there to breathe your air

Silver spoon in hand, no I can’t lie
‘cos a broomstick handle is a, hard bone way to die

Money don’t come easy, and that’s the truth
Poor folk got there because they pay all their dues

[HORN BREAKDOWN]

Gin and tonic suit me well I’ve been through a living hell
Mama told me, life ain’t fair
But now you’ve got me fair and square
