Biography:
Steve Harley (born Stephen Malcolm Ronald Nice in south London on 27 February 1951) is an English singer and songwriter, best known as frontman of the rock group Cockney Rebel (subsequently Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel), with whom he still tours.

You lead the lost sheep up to the mountain

With that old familiar smile that everybody's seen
[Verse 2]

There's a million or more if you're counting

It's that old familiar sting where everybody's clean
[Chorus]

There's a rumbling while you're lording it, everyone's watching your game

How the West was won is a legend

It's like that old rodeo where anything goes
[Chorus 2]

You're still talking but only to the walking, dead 'cause they've all gone asleep

There's little now to be said for this

Oh, you know we've done all we can

And so everyone's waiting for an audience with the man
