Living in Hope - The Rutles

I grew up in the country

beside a chicken shack

so I left for the city

and I didn’t look back

Now I’m living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I’m living in hope

Living in hope

Walkin 'round the city

feeling all alone

nobody told me

the streets are paved with stone

But I’m living in hope

Yes, I’m living in hope

I’m living in hope

I’m living in hope

Can’t find my feet or a friendly face

In this god foresaken town

Nobody stops to lend a hand

unless they want to put you down

Got no woman

or a steady job

Feeling like a cowboy

and looking like a slob

But I’m living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I’m living in hope

I’m living in hope

Nothing in my pocket

Nowhere to go

Looking for a handout

But no one wants to know

But I’m living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I’m living in hope

Living in hope

I’m living in hope

Living in hope

Yes, I’m living in hope

Living in hope
