Kicked your gift-horse in the teeth

Crowd gathered 'round in the street

You killed your saviour

New one can't be found

Talk is cheap, your saviour's highway bound

You read the tabloids ev'ryday

They're givin' lots of things away

They want to build you up

So they can bring you down

Talk is cheap it's gonna

Could make them a million pounds

Now baby, don't put your business on the telephone

Tell your girlfriend just to leave me alone

Tell her to watch her mouth

Before she talks to anybody, anybody

Oh 'cause talk is cheap

It comes with the territory

Alright!

(Instrumental, fiddle & harmonica)

Sometimes it's back-to-front

Sometimes it's upside down

Put your money where your mouth is

When you come around

Backbiters and syndicators

Walkin' from China town

Oh an' talk is cheap

Why don't you lay your money down?

Well, they say that can't shut up a goddamn fool

Ain't no exception to the rule

It's blah, blah, blah, blah

Just like a nursery rhyme

Talk is cheap

Almost all the time

Alright

(Instrumental & fiddle)

Yes, talk is cheap

Almost all the time.
