Mark Knopfler - Early Bird lyrics

Got no books in my house
Got no time for those no room in my closets
Closet's full of clothes
Garage full of wheels babe
Boat house full of boat
The lifestyle ideal babe
That's what gets my vote

All the Villa's on the hillsides
Gotta have a view of the sea
Villas of the empire, way back in history
They have slaves for the
Galleys and the kitchens
Gardens and the vines slaves
For the beautiful people
Bring water food and wine
A slave to tie your bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll take my crib
I dig my chariot dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac coming
Forth to carry me home, dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac coming
Forth to carry me home

England calls me vulgar
I'd call myself refined
Good bye old England
Simon's off to sunny climes
Look who's doin it now babe
Look who's doin it now
Look who's doin it now babe
Look who's doin it now

Always was an early bird
With something on the side
Better buy this better buy that
Let that baby ride
Out here every day it's hot
And I'm talking to my men
Working this working that
Working on my master plan

A slave to tie my bib
Another one to carry it
So now I'll take my crib
I dig my chariot dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac, coming
Forth to carry me home, dig my crib
And my long black Cadillac coming
Forth to carry me home

Now here's the hot tub, here's the gym
Here's the pool that I swam in
Up the stairs my footprints led
To the bedroom to my bed
Up the stairs my footprints led
To where I lay my bosom head

Sleep the long sleep of the dead
I'm and early bird that's what I said
Early bird, early bird
Ooh! I'm an early bird
