Call yourself friend and you look me in the eye
I'll unstrap my knees and I'll apologise
'Cause I'm Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Ain't no neighbours upon our hill
'Crept slight thigh be-bop and old gumbo jill
'Cause we're Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Ain't nobody's someone and it hurts deep inside
Just call us taxi, mama, and we'll take you for a ride
'Cause we're Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Myxomatosis is an animal's disease
But I got so shook up, mama, that it ate away my knees
'Cause I'm Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Ain't had no money, Lord, but it's plain to see,
If you had some silver, mister, how much would you pay for me?
'Cause I'm Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys,
Oh yes, we are

Call yourself friend and you look me in the eye
I'll unstrap my knees and I'll apologise
'Cause I'm Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

You ain't gonna fool me, honey!

Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are

Left Hand Luke and the beggar boys
Oh yes, we are
