Lyrics
Sometimes I wish I was rich like a king
and sometimes I'm glad I'm not
Sometimes I wish that the fat man would bring
all the good things I haven't got
I got a quiet room in a quiet street
it's warm when it's cold
and it's cool in the heat
and I'm gonna climb to the top of the heap
then Forget It
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
Some times I think that the man is a fool
He gets up and goes out every day
to go off and do what he'd rather not do
I hope he's enjoying his stay
because life is short
and he got caught
filling his belly by fitting a slot
and if you think he's happy with all that he bought
then Forget It
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
I got a broken heart and a beat-up car
I got a lawyer but I got no wife
they took it all away except this guitar
and the songs I sing about my life
I'm gonna find somebody to care for me
to make me feel pretty good inside
someone to be there for
and there for me
then Forget It
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
let it go then forget it
