(Lord, Shanty Town.)
Well, it's only a shanty down in old Shanty Town
But the roof is all slanty low but it touches the ground
It's just a tumbled down shack by that old, old railroad track
But like a millionaire's mansion it keeps a-calling me back.
Well, I'd give up a palace Lord, if I were a king
But it's more than a palace, it is my everything
There's a queen waiting there she's got rolls in her hair
It's my shanty down in old shanty town.
