Dear landlord
Please heed these words that I speak
I know you've suffered
But you are not so unique
When that steamboat whistle blows
I'm gonna give you all I got to give
And I do hope you receive it well
Depending on the way you feel that you live

Dear landlord
Please don't put a price on my soul
Oh, I feel about you, I do
If I lose my control
All of us, at times, we might work too hard
To have it too fast and much
But anyone can understand things
He can feel, but he just can't touch

Dear landlord
Please don't dismiss my case
Don't you know, I'm not about to argue
Or move to no other place
Each of us has his own special gift
And you know this was meant to be true
And if you don't underestimate me
I won't underestimate you
