I'd Rather Be Here (The Spaniard) Lyrics

I've been to the top of the Eiffel Tower

I've been to the Berlin Wall

I've probably seen things that I really shouldn't have done

I've probably seen it all

But I'd rather be here with a pint of beer

I'd rather be here with you

I'd rather sit right down in this town

And spend a while with you, with you

And have one for the wrong and one for the right

One for the crazy too

One for the ones who've gone away

One for the fading light

I nearly was a pastor and had a little church

I went to lots of business schools

And they emptied all my purse

I'd rather be here with a holy cheer and know my friends are too

I'd rather be close to the holy ghosts of all those we knew

Those we knew

And have one for the wrong and one for the right

One for the crazy too

One for the ones who've gone away

One for the fading light

I've been to high society I don't know how I got that far

But I don't care, they've got nowhere as good as this bar

They ain't got the jokes, from the daft old folks

That sit around in this place

So we'll sing this song so those who've gone

Will probably wish they'd stayed

We wish they'd stayed

And have one for the wrong and one for the right

One for the crazy too

One for the ones who've gone away

One for the fading light

One for the wrong and one for the right (one more)

One for the crazy too

One for the ones who've gone away

One for the fading light

One for the wrong and one for the right (one more)

One for the crazy too

One for the ones who've gone away

One for the fading light
