Living In Hope Songtext

von The Rutles

I grew up in the Country, beside a chicken shack.
So I left for the City, and I didn't look back.
Now I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope-.

Walkin' 'round the City, feelin' all alone.
Nobody told me the streets are paved with stone.
But I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Yes, I'm livin' in hope.
(Livin' in hope) I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) I'm livin' in hope-.

Can't find my feet or a friendly face in this God-forsaken town.
Nobody stops to lend a hand unless they wanna put you down. No.

Got no woman or a steady job.
Feelin' like a cowboy and lookin' like a slob.
But I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) I'm livin' in hope-.

Nothin' in my pocket. Nowhere to go.
Lookin' for a handout but no one wants to know
Why I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope-.

I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope)
Yes, I'm livin' in hope. (Livin' in hope) Livin' in hope-.
