There was a knockin' at my door
[Cm]It's the dreaded lan[Gm]dlord
He w[Cm]ants his rent and w[Gm]ants it n[Dm]ow, he is careless [Gm]how
He l[Eb]eft us in a vacant d[Bb]aze, as[Cm]king h[Dm]ow [Cm]we got here.
A[Gm]nd we retired to sl[Dm]umber but, the gl[Am]asses never were ri[Gm]nsed.
T[Gm]here was a tappin' on my back
I[Cm]t's the dreaded fo[Gm]reman
I t[Cm]hink I see a smile thr[Gm]ough his te[Dm]eth and his ci[Gm]gar
He [Eb]put my hands to w[Bb]ork o[Cm]the[Dm]rwi[Cm]se do nothin'
A[Gm]nd I made a tho[Dm]usand things to[Am]day, I'm sure I'll never [Gm]use.
T[Gm]here was a ringin' on my phone
I pi[Cm]cked it up to an[Gm]swer, they s[Dm]aid they were my com[Gm]rade.
But t[Eb]hey couldn't say my n[Bb]ame
So I a[Eb]sked them about the s[Bb]un and moon
And what their tho[Cm]ughts [Dm]on ti[Cm]me were
They h[Gm]ung it up in ma[Dm]dness and went [Am]on to punch the c[Gm]lock
[Cm]And somewhere there's a sound of someone si[Gm]nging
I g[Dm]ot an invitation once to li[Gm]berty
They had a mis[Eb]chief brew but, not gob[Gm]lets were used
Bes[Am]ting rum or porter 'tis a li[Am]quor never br[Bb]ewed.[Am]
Never brewed...
[Gm]Na [Gm]na [Cm]na.[Gm]..[Cm][Gm][Dm][Gm]
T[Gm]here was a knockin' at my door
It's t[Cm]he dreaded poli[Gm]cemen
He had a t[Dm]icket to enter signed by f[Gm]ools of Sanford laws
And he ques[Eb]tioned me on pol[Bb]itics and sc[Cm]ored [Dm]my gene[Cm]ration
For [Gm]not respecting el[Dm]ders and l[Am]ands autho[Gm]rity
[Gm]When the landlord came to knock,
[Cm]I said "Come back tom[Gm]orrow
Th[Cm]ere's more life I'll be li[Gm]ving than just sla[Bb]ving for your wage
And [Eb]to the troop and for[Bb]eman.
Make you[Eb]rself the th[Bb]ings I d[Am]on't use.
For I'm o[Gm]ff into the fo[Dm]rest for a li[Am]quor never bre[Gm]wed!"
