We'd packed everything and we set it all up to play three songs on a radio show
But you never can tell if anyone's listenin' and I guess it don't kill us what we don't know

When we're packin' it up is hear Stu on the phone sayin',"Baby I'm livin' the dream..."

If I'd a listen to my ma 'en she said, "Don't be believin' everything them writers say"

Well there's people there who care a little 'bout me and you know they won't let the poor boy down

With smiles all around 'cause in Seventy Six hour till we have to be leavin' again
