The drumsticks were his treasure trove,
Found in the ashes of The Coconut Grove,
Hey, man, can you give me something?
Hey, man, did you give me something?
Hey, man, nothing comes from nothing,
Hey, man, something came from somewhere,
Hey, man, it's a tenement song,
It's there on the tip of your tongue,
Let's play on a tenement song,
On and on and on, Tenement song,
It's a tenement song,
Tall bottle and one more smoke,
Tenement song,
She lived through the fire but the piano got broke,
It's a tenement song,
Hey, man, can you give me something?
Hey, man, did you give me something?
Hey, man, nothing comes from nothing,
Hey, man, something came from somewhere,
Hey, man, it's a tenement song,
It's there on the tip of your tongue,
Let's play on a tenement song,
On and on and on,
Hey, man, it's a tenement song,
It's there on the tip of your tongue,
Let's play on a tenement song,
On and on and on
