- Have A Cigar Lyrics / with translationsCome on over here boy, have a cigar, you're gonna go far
You're gonna fly high, you're never gonna die
You're gonna make it if you try they're gonna love you
Well I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincerely
But the band is just fantastic that is really what I think
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train'
We're just knocked out we heard about the sell out
You gotta get an album out, you owe it to the people
We're so happy we can hardly count
Everybody else is just green have you seen the chart?
It's a helluva start it could be made into a monster
If we all pull together as a team
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train', yeah
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train'
You're gonna fly high, you're never gonna die
You're gonna make it if you try they're gonna love you
Well I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincerely
But the band is just fantastic that is really what I think
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train'
We're just knocked out we heard about the sell out
We're so happy we can hardly count
Everybody else is just green have you seen the chart?
It's a helluva start it could be made into a monster
If we all pull together as a team
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train', yeah
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it 'Riding the Gravy Train'
