week after week
You'll always have a roof under

which you can sleep

The years had passed by,

the war came to an end

With the size of his gut and his

He'd kneel on a Sunday

The woman next door,

she just passed away

And there in the bed she closed
up her eyes
The last time they gazed

only then will I go
It was never meant that one
A
man should treat the others so
