Nothing Out Of Nothing
Great Big Sea

I left my home, my family by the ocean

Out on my own, to seek my fortune

There's no work to occupy these young hands

So look out boy! Your heading for the mainland!

Chorus:

And what do you do? Can't make nothing out of nothing

Everybody needs a start

And what do you do? Can't make nothing out of nothing

Give my country back it's heart

Now I was born on a St. John's street

Where all my hopes could meet with defeat

I hired my days to higher education

No I'm so smart I could rule this comdenation

Chorus

No I'm alone but I'm working everyday

I'm getting stoned and blowing all my pay

Just to survive I'll do whatever I can

No I'm alive, but I cannot be a real man

Chorus
