Stranglers - Where I Live lyrics

rate me

Hey man, I like your beard,

And I like the way you serve that beer,

I like the way your daughter smiles at me,

Hey mister, could I have just one more beer?

I got two big balls,

A cap and a bat,

And I play with them all of the time,

I got a million things I'd rather do,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine.

Yea, this is the place where I live, and the place where I love

Hey mamselle, fill me up baby,

I like the way you give me gas,

Tell me,

Who is the man with the double barrelled gun?

(My daddy)

I think I better move on fast.

I got a big black car,

A dog and a cat,

And I play with them all of the time,

I got a million things I'd rather do,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine.

Yea, this is the place where I live

And the place where I love

The way the old church spire stabs the clouds,

and when the old folks say,

I'll have another drink to see me

Through the day, thank you J.J.

Yea, this is the place where I live

And the place where I love.

Hey, Mrs B., take a look at me,

D'you really think I'm quite that bad,

Sometimes I say and do stupid things

That only serve to make you sad.

I got a motorcycle, an empty seat,

And twenty years ahead of my time,

I got a million things I'd rather do,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine,

If only you say you'll stay mine.

Yea, this is the place where I live,

And the place where I love

Ah, this is it
