The Proclaimers - Cap in Hand - 2011 Remaster lyrics

Artist: The Proclaimers

album: Sunshine on Leith (2011 Remaster)


I could tell the meaning of a word like serene
I got some 'O' Grades when I was 16
I can tell the difference between magarine and butter
I can say "Saskatchewan" without starting to stutter
But I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
I could get a broken jaw from being in a fight
I know its evening when day turns to night
I can understand why Stranraer lie so lowly
They could save a lot of points by signing Hibs Goalie
But I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
We fight, when they ask us
We boast, then we cower
We beg
For a piece of
What's already ours, what's already ours, what's already ours

We fight, when they ask us
We boast, then we cower
We beg
For a piece of
What's already ours, what's already ours, what's already ours
Once I thought I could make God a bribe (make God a bribe)
So I said I was in his lost tribe (in his lost tribe)
Getting handouts can be so frustrating
"Get in line, son, there's five million waiting"
I can't understand you we let someone else rule your land, cap in hand
No, I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
No, I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land, cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
Cap in hand
