Where I Live

Hey man, I like your beard
And I like the way you serve that beer
I like the way your daughter smiles at me
Hey mister, could I have just one more beer
I got two big balls
A cap and a bat
And I play with them all the time
I got a million things I'd rather do
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
Yea, this is the place where I live
And the place where I love
Hey mamselle, fill me up baby
I like the way you give me gas
Tell me
Who is the man with the double-barrelled gun?
(My daddy)
I think I better move on fast
I got a big black car
A dog and a cat
And I play with them all of the time
I got a million things I'd rather do
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
Yea, this is the place where I live
And the place where I love
The way the old church spire stabs the clouds
And when the old folks say
I'll have another drink to see me
Through the day, thank you J.J.
Yea, this is the place where I live
And the place where I love
Hey, Mrs. B, take a look at me
D'you really think I'm quite that bad
Soometimes I say and do stupid thngs
That only serve to make you sad
I got a motorcycle, an empty seat
And twenty years ahead of my time
I got a million other things I'd rather do
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
If only you say you'll stay mine
Yea, this is the place where I live
And the place where I love
Ah, this is it
