[Verse 1]
Andrea turn to me and hear what I'm sayin'
And why must you always be kneelin' and prayin'
Though hard as I run I can't overcome
The things that this city has taken
Cowbells shakin'

[Verse 2]
Go back to our village a-wailin' and weepin'
And tell your fat momma the life we've been keepin'
Your headwaiter brother won't give me a job
And I've walked these streets till I'm breakin'
Cowbells shakin'

[Outro]
Andrea speak up can't you hear what I'm sayin'
And why must you always be kneelin' and prayin'
