It's only a shanty in old shantytown.
The roof is so slanty, it touches the ground.
It's a tumble down shack by an old railroad track
Like a millionaire's mansion, it's calling me back.
I'd give up a palace if I were a king.
It's more than a palace,
It's my everything.
There's a queen waiting there
With a silvery crown
In a shanty in old shantytown.
IN A SHANTY IN OLD SHANTYTOWN
