Steve Winwood - 40,000 Headmen Lyrics
Forty thousand headmen couldnt make me change my mindIf I had to take the choice between the deafman and the blindI know just where my feet should go and thats enough for meI turned around and knocked them down and walked across the seaHadnt traveled very far when suddenly I sawThree small ships a-sailing out towards a distant shoreSo lighting up a cigarette I followed in pursuitAnd found a secret cave where they obviously stashed their lootFilling up my pockets, even stuffed it up my noseI must have weighed a hundred tons between my head and toesI ventured forth before the dawn had time to change its mindAnd soaring high above the clouds I found a golden shrineLaying down my treasure before the iron gateQuickly rang the bell hoping I hadnt come too lateBut someone came along and told me not to waste my timeAnd when I asked him who he was he said, just look behindSo I turned around and forty thousand headmen bit the dirtFiring twenty shotguns each and man, it really hurtBut luckily for me they had to stop and then reloadAnd by the time theyd done that I was heading down the road
