Mark Knopfler - Early Bird lyrics

Got no books in my house, got no time for those No room in my closets, closet's full of clothes Garage full of wheels babe, boat house full of boat The lifestyle ideal babe, that's what gets my vote All the Villa's on the hillsides, gotta have a view of the sea Villas of the empire, way back in history They have slaves for the galleys and the kitchens Gardens and the vines slaves for the beautiful people Bring water food and wine A slave to tie your bib, another one to carry it So now I'll take my crib, I dig my chariot dig my crib And my long black Cadillac coming forth to carry me home, dig my crib And my long black Cadillac coming forth to carry me home England calls me vulgar, I'd call myself refined Good bye old England, Simon's off to sunny climes Look who's doin it now babe look who's doin it now Look who's doin it now babe look who's doin it now Always was an early bird, with something on the side Better buy this better buy that, [?] let that baby ride Out here every day it's hot, and I'm talking to my men Working this working that, working on my master plan A slave to tie my bib, another one to carry it So now I'll take my crib, I dig my chariot dig my crib And my long black Cadillac, coming forth to carry me home, dig my crib And my long black Cadillac coming forth to carry me home Now here's the hot-tub, here's the gym Here's the pool that I swam in Up the stairs my footprints led, to the bedroom to my bed Up the stairs my footprints led, to where I lay my bosom head Sleep the long sleep of the dead I'm and early bird that's what I said Early bird, early bird Ooh! I'm an early bird
