Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Abba - What about livingstone ------------------------------------------ Went to buy me a paper at the local newsstand and then I heard them laugh and say "look, theyīre gonna go flying way up to the moon now hey, whatīs it good for anyway" so I said "Fellers like to ask you a thing if I may: What about Livingstone? What about all those men who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way? Tell me wasnīt it worth the while travelling up the Nile putting themselves on test didnīt that help the rest? Wasnīt it worth it then? What about Livingstone?" And all of those fellers at the local newsstand didnīt know what to answer or what to say so I told them about him that he was just like one of those spacemen in his way and if you laugh at them then thereīs only a thing I can say "What about Livingstone? What about all those men who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way? Tell me wasnīt it worth the while travelling up the Nile putting themselves on test didnīt that help the rest? Wasnīt it worth it then? What about Livingstone?"
