It was a long hard climb up a frozen face/It was a joke so sick still my belly aches/There were times I thought that comeuppance was my only friend/But I got up there/Up on top of the heap/I took a wife there/Now I had promises to keep/Man if you think it doesn't matter who your leaders are think again/Why'd you work so hard/Why'd you work so hard/If I'd been a saint/Or a St. Bernard/If I’d been the painter/Of the lines on the boulevard/If I’d been a quitter/Hoist myself on my own petard/I'd be in the same place I'm in right now/I'd be in the same place I'm in right now/Dig out/Dig in/Get up/Sin sin sin/One vote/One win/Wake up/When we gonna wake up/If I'd been a saint/Or a St. Bernard/If I'd been the painter/Of the lines on the boulevard/If I'd been a quitter/Hoist myself on my own petard/I'd be in the same place I'm in right now/I'd be in the same place I'm in right now/Lord keep my rising soul/Lord watch my children grow/If I'd been a saint/Or a St. Bernard/If I'd been the painter/Of the lines on the boulevard/If I'd been a quitter/Hoist myself on my own petard/I'd be in the same place I'm in right now
