Well the king told the kingdom that he would pay Not enough gold in the world Any woman who could spin him gold from hay Not enough gold in the world Well there's plenty going round for the women and men But there's nothing for the boys and the girls Where's it coming from 'cause the king won't pay There's just not enough in the world No, just not enough in the world I'm driving to the corner and the green turns gold Not enough green in the world I'm sittin on the corner and I'm a growin old Not enough green in the world No, not enough green in the world I'm sitting at the corner of elm and main Not enough lights in the world And I'm prayin to the lord that the light's-a-gonna-change Not enough lights in the world No, not enough lights in the world Now I've been told about a thousand points of light Not enough points in the world I'm looking and I only see the dark of night Not enough points in the world No, not enough points in the world
