Kinks, The - In A Foreign Land Lyrics

Complimentary "In A Foreign Land" Ringtone

It was a matter of fact that when I paid all my tax 
I held my world in the palm of my hand 
And all of my debts were causing me to defect 
To a land of bananas and sand 
So I ran, yes I ran, yes I ran to a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am 
Here I am in a foreign land 

I'm so glad we made it 
I thought we'd never land 
I grabbed all my cash 
And I decided to dash far away 
Far away, far away in a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land 

Goodbye to all of the rich men's daughters 
Goodbye to my debts now I'm way across the water 
Far away, far away in a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land 

La la la la la la 
La la la la la la 

Please tell my mother and all my ex-lovers 
That I've finally made the grade 

Please tell my debtors and the money collectors 
That all of my bills will be paid some day 
I'm away, I'm away in a foreign land 

Goodbye champagne and the caviar set 
I wanna slum and drink all of the rum I can get 
I'm away, I'm away in a foreign land 
Here I am, here I am, here I am in a foreign land 
But I'm all out of my jack and I can't go back 
I'm away, far away, far away in a foreign land 

La la la la la la 
La la la la la la
