Paul Kelly (Mushroom)  I was born in a crowded taxi  Daddy scooped me right up off the floor  And he carried me up the path through the big swinging doors  I was taught not to speak to strangers  But strangers always seemed to know my name  And they bought and sold my pleasure, my disgust and my shame  Now I've got debts to pay  I've got scores to settle  Dreams at break of day  Long nights in the saddle  It's all downhill from here  Everyday brings changes in the mirror  Every hand that touches me is kind  When I think of home it sparkles and so brightly shines  But I've got debts to pay  I've got scores to settle  Dreams at break of day  Long nights in the saddle  It's all downhill from here
