Roger Miller Not in Nottingham Lyrics
Spoken:
Man, oh man
That prince John sure made sure his threat.
And his subjects paid dearly for his humiliation.
Believe me. Taxes, taxes, taxes.
Why he taxed the hardest soul out of the poor people of Notthingham.
And if you can't pay your taxes, you went to jail.
Yup! I'm in here, too.
Nottingham is in deep trouble.
Sung:
Every town
Has its ups and downs
Sometime ups
Outnumber the downs
But not in Nottingham
I'm inclined to believe
If we were so down
We'd up and leave
We'd up and fly
if we had wings for flyin'
Can't you see the tears we're cryin'?
Can't there be some happiness for me?
Not in Nottingham
