Great Big Sea lyrics : "Nothing Out Of Nothing"
Out on my own, to seek my fortune,
There's no work to occupy these young hands
So look out boy! Your heading for the mainland!
[Chorus:]
And what do you do? Can't make nothing out of nothing
Everybody needs a start
And what do you do? Can't make nothing out of nothing
Give my country back its heart
Now I was born on a St. John's street
Where all my hopes could meet with defeat
I hired my days to higher education
No I'm so smart I could rule this comdenation
[Chorus]
No I'm alone but I'm working everyday
I'm getting stoned and blowing all my pay
Just to survive I'll do whatever I can
No I'm alive, but I cannot be a real man
[Chorus]
