She went from Cape to Cairo

I went from Cape to Rio

She drinks her Tanqueray

But it's Mainstay for me-o

My heart and soul are hardened

I built the Hanging Gardens

I let my tears flow

I let my tears flow

Oh what bitter stuff

Don't say my song's too slow

Don't talk cause you don't know

The place I come from is a place you never go

No no it's not enough

I want more of this bitter stuff

You'll see me swinging as you're praying for my fall

I try to understand her

Outside on the blue veranda

When she feels pleasure

It's a measure of my worth

They say never say never

But my name's Nebuchadnezzar

And I'll never let it go

I'll never let it go

No it's not enough

Don't say my song's too slow

Don't talk cause you don't know

The place I come from is a place you never go

No no it's not enough

I want more of this bitter stuff

You'll see me swinging as you're praying for my fall

She makes the feeling purer

With a dash of Angostura

I've learned the art

Of being everywhere at once

I built the Cape to Cairo

I drank the Cape to Rio

I died an emperor

And came back as a griot oh

Don't say my song's too slow

Don't talk cause you don't know

The place I come from is a place you never go

No no it's not enough

I want more of this bitter stuff

You'll see me swinging as you're praying for my fall

Don't say my song's too slow

Don't talk cause you don't know

The place I come from is a place you never go

No no it's not enough

I want more of this bitter stuff

You'll see me haggard as I stagger down the hall
