Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ray Davies] It was a matter of fact that when I paid all my tax I held the 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 [Verse 2: Ray Davies] I'm so gad 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 [Verse 3: Ray Davies] Goodbye to all of the rich man's daughters Goodbye to my debts now I'm 'way cross 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 [Verse 4: Ray Davies] 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, far away in a foreign land [Verse 5: Ray Davies] Goodbye champagne and the caviar set I wanna slum and drink all 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
