Cautionary family man
attending to business as best he can
Mrs. Misadventure will say
check for one million in the post today
And like a dream come true
only ourselves to please
When I can hold on to
these precious things
We are not rich
we are not poor
we never stand tall
on what we know
and every day
will mean the same
to those we love
we raise our voice
Irish whisky and a table for two
on troublesome occassion
the best thing to do
take advantage of myself and my time
I don't give up easily
what is rightly mine
We are not rich
we are not poor
we never stand tall
on what we know
Cautionary family man
attending to business as best he can
Mrs. Missadventure will say
check for one million in the post today
Cautionary a family man
protecting his interests as best he can
Mrs. Missadventure will say
ain't nobody is wealthy in the world today
And like a dream come true
only ourselves to please
When I can hold on to
these precious things
We are not rich
we are not poor
we never stand tall
on what we know
and every day
will mean the same
to those we love
we raise our voice
