Well
He used to be a tailor
Sewed those suits so fine
And he never heard a failure
And he never tasted wine.
And he used to be a leader
When he had someone to lead
And he used to be a father
When he had some mouths to feed
When he had some mouths to feed
And they say it never rains in L.A. county
But it gets cold enough to wish you had a few.
And he laughs tonight and says: I finally found me -
A room with a view - how about you?
He was living in a castle that he built with his own hands
Out of newspaper and cardboard he was living off the land
He was living off the land
He was living off the land.
And they say it never rains in L.A. county
...
And he used to be a leader - and he used to be a father
