[Verse 1]
Get tired of coming in from the mountains every year
Find some place to set up shop around here
Spread out a little, circulate
A log that floats down river
Will surely take on weight
[Pre-refrain]
Meet some people, make some friends
How long till we get sent back to the mountains?
It all depends
[Refrain]
On the hopeful
And the cunning
And the faithful
The well-positioned
Filthy but graceful
[Verse 2]
Get familiar with affairs of state
Foretell the future
Get a pretty good success rate
Notch some wins, take some losses
Be nice to the guys who wear necklaces with crosses
They will stab you in the back
Get tired of coming in from the mountains every year
Find some place to set up shop around here
Spread out a little, circulate
A log that floats down river
Will surely take on weight
[Pre-refrain]
Meet some people, make some friends
How long till we get sent back to the mountains?
It all depends
[Refrain]
On the hopeful
And the cunning
And the faithful
The well-positioned
Filthy but graceful
[Verse 2]
Get familiar with affairs of state
Foretell the future
Get a pretty good success rate
Notch some wins, take some losses
Be nice to the guys who wear necklaces with crosses
They will stab you in the back
