I get up in the morning slaving for bread sir
so that every mouth can be fed –
poor me Israelites
I get up in the morning slaving for bread sir
so that every mouth can be fed –
poor me Israelites
my wife and my kids they pack up
and a-leave me
darling she said I was yours to receive –
poor me Israelites
Shocked then I tear up chose as I go
I don't want to end up like Bonny and Clyde –
poor me Israelites
after a storm there must be a calming
you catch me in your palm
you sound your alarm –
