Stand Up Man lyrics by The Conells

No silence on the streets
Dirty feet, you cannot sleep
Your taxi is your home

You want to clean it up
The dirty scum, the filthy bums
You write when you're alone

But you cannot close your eyes
And time goes on
And Betsy let you down
You thought you had it right

No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

So the senator needs a ride, didn't you?
Didn't you imagine if he died?
The jealous husband met his match
Get a gun, darlin' one
Did you thank him for his cash?

But you cannot close your eyes
And time goes on
And Iris let you down
You thought you had it right


No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

Oh, but you cannot close your eyes
And time goes on
And Iris let you down
You thought you had it right

No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

No, you wouldn't wait man
Took the trouble in your own hand
You couldn't believe it
When she wouldn't leave it
Stand up man

Your shooting days are done
Drive a cab, pay the tab
Guess the war is won
