Last Laugh Songtext
von Johnny Dowd

This is a song for my mom
A union maid if ever there was one
My father was a worker
A union man you know
They nailed him to the cross
They gambled for the clothes
My mother was a call girl
Her body was for sale
I hope the scabs that bought her
End up in hell

You know about the camel
And about the needle′s eye
You know about the rich man
What happens when he dies
And don't forget the tax man
He brought you to your knees
Have no pity on the boss man
He had none on me


I went across the water
Saw the world in a grain of sand
I got myself a guitar
But you wouldn′t let me in your band
You call yourselves musicians
You play some things I can't
Well Jesus was an apostle
But that didn't make him a saint

I went out on a tree limb
You laughed to see me fall
But now you′re disappearing
I′m still up here standing tall

So when you see me coming
You'd better walk away
One thing is for certain
This dog′s gonna have his day

This dog's gonna have his day
This dog′s gonna have his day
This dog's gonna have his day
