Red Velvet


Red Velvet Carpet
Rolls out before your feet
As you stroll down ol antiquity street
And feelin fine
Like the red wine from the vine
A pocket watch and a wallet full of tens
And silver dimes

Who has the answers
That you wish to know
Is it the princess
The pauper or the throne
Cuz you're goin' to reap from the seeds you've sewn
And if the crop don't bear then your fault
That's all you own

Bless the water fountain
And all it has to give
Are you grateful for the life you live
And what you got
Have you given it a thought
Cuz the ones who have a little
Better off than the ones who have a lot
