Living in a Muddy Lane

I was born in time of trouble

And my father was working so far away

And I saw him very little, to my misfortune

I asked my mother, why?

I remember what my mother said

Now I understand

'Cause nobody ask for no one

When you're living in a muddy lane

And she never showed his feelings

When my father died, working so far away

And nobody came to the interment, to my confusion

I asked my mother why?

I remember what my mother said

Now I understand

'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey

Living in a muddy lane

Living in a muddy lane

Living in a muddy lane

Living in a muddy lane

Living in a muddy lane

I remember what my mother said

Now I understand

'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey

Living in a muddy lane

After all this time I think that we all are no one

We all live in nowhere town

Is the same life in a palace, or in a piggery

Nobody asks for no one

If my mother could listen to me

Maybe I would tell her

Yes, nobody asks for me, mummy

Living in a lonely world

Living in a lonely world

Living in a muddy lane

Living in a lonely world

Living in a muddy lane

I remember what my mother said

Now I understand

'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey

Living in a muddy lane
