Europe - Mr. Government Man Lyrics
Hey, hey, Mr. Government Man,
I'm just a poor boy doin' the best that I can
I've been stepped upon and pushed around, yes, I have
You can tie me up, but never tie me down
To get a beer and some cigarettes
Pullin' up behind me, not afraid to flirt
There's a girl in a red Corvette
I saw in her face that she wanted to race
So I let my car out of jail
Man, I blew it, before I knew it
The Feds were on my tail
I knew it were trouble, but didn't wanna stop
My dashboard slick from alcohol
And my head still in a whirl
Just a country boy in the city lights
Tryin' to have some fun
But the Man behind me didn't wanna play
He pulled out a gun
Hey, hey, Mr. Government Man...
Well, I had it comin', I hit the wall
And my car went up in flames
My head got hammered, thrown in the slammer
No one but me to blame
That's my story, ain't much glory
But I know I paid my dues
One thing I know in my heart and soul
I ain't never gonna lose
Hey, hey, Mr. Government Man...
Hey, what else can I do?
Hey, my, my
Hey, hey, Mr. Government Man...
Hey, hey, Mr. Government Man
Don't you push me around no more

Europe Mr. Government Man Comments
Europe the my heros
good Glam Metal music
Best song i know
I guess this is from Le Baron Boys
Great Song!!!! This should have been on the album!!
Good one! Can't beleive it didn't make it to the Prisoners in Paradise-album.
@SlaughteredDecay I can't believe they didn't release another album before Prisoners, with all those great demo songs from the Le Baron Boys demo - this being one of the best. I think it's magical, like a better version of Bon Jovi. However, since they didn't, it's difficult as hell trying to find all those tracks in decent quality. Even buying "Le Baron Boys sessions" CD wasn't satisfying because most of the tracks sounded way worse than I expected. Mr. Government Man sounded pretty good though.
+SIMON GÅRDH Oh yeah, my prisoners in paradise album has about 26 songs on it, even the ones that didnt't make it
@Pete Friesen Cool. I eventually just downloaded all tracks associated with Le baron boys and put it on a disc.
@Pete Friesen where have you bought it?
Tell us pls.
Siamo in due...
io sono di parte essendo un loro grande fan, ma anche questo è un pezzo che spacca!!!!!
This is a slightly different mix to the one i have, the intro/chorus seems to have some extra 'stick clicking' noises. I have the le baron boys demo version i think, studio quality like this but subtle differences it seems
You can find this tune in Europe's best of double cd "Rock The Night".
WHERE CAN I GET THIS HERE THING?
One of their best songs really. Great!
