I'm Here Because I'm Here - Lyrics - Fiddler's Green

Fiddler's Green is a legendary supposed afterlife, where there is perpetual mirth, a fiddle that never stops playing, and dancers who never tire. Its origins are obscure, although some point to the Greek myth of the Elysian Fields as a potential inspiration.

Here I am amongst you and I'm here Because I'm Here I'm only one year older than I was This time last year Early to rise makes man wise, This I don't think true Sure how the hell can a man go to bed If he has none to go to The more man has, the more man want, Well this I don't think true I never met a man with one black eye Who had wished that he had two Never throw a brick to a drowning man If you're close to a grocer's store Throw him a bar of sunlight soap, Let him wash himself ashore I think I've said enough I say no more And before you show me the door I'll take a bow and I leave you now And I won't come back any more
