Mr Landlord

 Oh Mr Landlord

Can you tell the way I must go

Oh Mr Landlord, 

Can you tell me the way home?


I've been wandering this old world like a Spaniard

Oh On a Galleon in search of my gold

But now Mr Landlord

I can't buy back the home that I sold


Oh Mr Landlord, shall I keep on my journey so bold

With all that I have shown you, do you believe

All you've been told?


There must be a time of my returning

There must be an hour that comes

And Oh I can't wait in the burning

In the heat of the day in the sun


Oh Mr Landlord, will you give me back

All that I am owed?

Or will I have to keep searching

Down that long lonesome road?
