Sandpaper Blues Lyrics & Chords By Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros

It's gonna boom mariachi
This really fine piece of madera
And this will be the counter
Of the Pueblo Tabacalera

Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
All around the world

Oh, this keel could save a life
When the storms hit the Pacific
To make it really true
You really gotta be specific

Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
All around the world

Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able
Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able

All around the world

From the Yukon comes a cowboy
De La Foret en La Montagne
Puts a grease gun to his elbow, saying
Never go against the grain

Never go against that grain

Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able
Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able

Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
Shape it up, shape it up
All around the world
All around the world

Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able
Keep the lantern bright, keep food upon the table
If you shape it well tonight, as well as you are able

All around the world
