Steve Winwood Lyrics
40,000 Headmen

Forty thousand headmen couldn't make me change my
mind If I had to take the choice between the
deafman and the blind I know just where my feet
should go and that's enough for me I turned around
and knocked them down and walked across the sea

Hadn't traveled very far when suddenly I saw Three
small ships a-sailing out towards a distant shore
So lighting up a cigarette I followed in pursuit
And found a secret cave where they obviously
stashed their loot

Filling up my pockets, even stuffed it up my nose
I must have weighed a hundred tons between my head

and toes I ventured forth before the dawn had time
to change its mind And soaring high above the
clouds I found a golden shrine

Laying down my treasure before the iron gate
Quickly rang the bell hoping I hadn't come too
late But someone came along and told me not to
waste my time And when I asked him who he was he
said, 'Just look behind'

So I turned around and forty thousand headmen hit
the dirt Firing twenty shotguns each and man, it
really hurt But luckily for me they had to stop
and then reload And by the time they'd done that I
was heading down the road
