Hammer [US] - You May Never Wake Up (Apologies To Auden & Frost)

When I was a young boy, I was called to quarry stone for a mending wall, Wall became city, city thrived, Apartments and smokestacks cradled the sky. You've only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never wake up. You've only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never wake up. Ain’t I glad, got no time to be sad. When I was a young boy, I was called to quarry stone for a mending wall, Wall became city, city thrived, Apartments and smokestacks cradled the sky. You've only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never wake up. You've only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never wake up. Ain’t I glad, got no time to be sad. Now I'm a veteran, I got only one eye, That’s what I got for to look at the sky, Think of the quarry in my dreams, Pour out the moonshine, drown out the screams! You only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never never wake up You only got to not try hard enough, And you may never wake up, never never wake up Ain’t I glad! Got no time — no time to be sad, Ain’t I glad?? (Jack O'Brien, Tom Kennedy)
