You don't get there by playing from the rule Book. You stack the aces. You load the dice. Mother dear, oh, we know you're down There listening. Mother know you're down How can we follow your Sweet advice to- How follow your Easy Street. Street. Easy Street. Where you sleep till noon. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She'd repeat, Easy Street.
