1
I'm up in the world,
2
but I'd give the world to be where I used to be,
3
A heavenly nest,
4
where I rest the best,
5
means more than the world to me.
6
It's only a shanty
7
in old Shanty Town
8
the roof is so slanty it touches the ground.
9
But my tumbled down shack by an old railroad track,
10
like a millionaire's mansion is calling me back.
11
I'd give up a palace if I were a king.
12
It's more than a palace, it's my everything.
13
There's a queen waiting there with a silvery crown
14
in a shanty in old Shanty Town.
