Nothing Out Of Nothing lyrics

I left my home, my family by the ocean
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]
