1
Forty thousand headmen couldn't make me change my mind
2
If I had to take the choice between the deaf man and the blind
3
I know just where my feet should go and that's enough for me
4
I turned around and knocked them down
5
And walked across the sea.
6
Hadn't traveled very far when suddenly I saw
7
Three small ships a sailin' towards a distant shore
8
So lighting up a cigarette I followed in pursuit
9
And found a secret cave where they obviously stashed their loot
10
Filling up my pockets, even stuffed it up my nose
11
I must have weighed a hundred tons between my head and toes
12
I ventured forth before the dawn had time to change it's mind
13
And soaring high above the clouds I found a golden shrine.
14
Laying down my treasure before the iron gate
15
Quickly rang the bell, hoped I hadn't come too late
16
But someone came along and told me not to waste my time
17
And when I asked him who he was he said "Just look behind"
18
So I turned around and 40,000 headmen bit the dirt
19
Firing twenty shotguns each and man it really hurt
20
But luckily for me they had to stop and then reload
21
And by the time they'd done I was heading down the road.
22
Heading down the road,
23
Forty thousand headmen on my trail
