Tony Carey - Room with a view

Well he used to be a tailor Sew those suits so fine And he never heard of failure And he never tasted wine And he used to be a leader When he had someone to lead And he used to be a father When he had some mouths to feed And they say it never rains in LA county But it gets cold enough to wish you had a few And he laughts tonight and says "I finally found me a room with a view How about you" He was living in a castle That he built with his own hands Out of newspaper and cardboard He was living off the land
