Lyrics

Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
I'd work my way up slowly, starting at your toes
Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
The hours might be hell, but the view is surely gold

Seven men dead on a dead man's chest
Eleven went down but we never saw the rest
That's what she said, that's what she said
Sent 'em all down, they were never saw again
Walked 'em out tall they were sinners in the end
That's what she said, that's what she said

Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
I'd work my way up slowly, starting at your toes
Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
The hours might be hell, but the view is surely gold

Forty six days in the belly of the pit
Forty six days till the seven lives were spent
That's what she said, that's what she said
Eleven good men made a promise to the end
Four struck gold and they struck the others dead
That's what she said, that's what she said

Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
I'd work my way up slowly, starting at your toes
Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
The hours might be hell, but the view is surely gold

The four men left made a devil of a deal
The dead wouldn't talk and the others wouldn't squeal
That's what she said, that's what she said
Two men fell 'cuz they shouldn't have trusted three
The third went down 'cuz he shouldn't have trusted me
That's what she said, that's what she said

Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
I'd work my way up slowly, starting at your toes
Well I wish I was the low man, on your totem pole
The hours might be hell, but the view is surely gold
