Snow laying all around A collier cycles home From his night shift underground Past the silent pub Primary school, workingmens club On the road from the pithead The churchyard packed With mining dead Then beneath the bridge He comes to a giant car A shroud of snow upon the roof A mark ten jaguar He thought the man was fast asleep Silent, still and deep Both dead and cold Shot through With bullet holes The one armed bandit man Came north to fill his boots Came up from cockneyland E-type jags and flashy suits Put your money in Pull the levers Watch them spin Cash cows in all the pubs But he preferred the new nightclubs Nineteen sixty-seven Bandit men in birdcage heaven La dolce vita, sixty-nine All new to people of the tyne Who knows who did what Somebody made a call They said his hands Were in the pot That he'd been skimming hauls He picks up the swag They gaily gave away Drives his giant jag Off to his big pay day The bandit man Came north to fill his boots Came up from cockneyland E-type jags and flashy suits The bandit man Came up the great north road Up to geordieland To mine The mother lode Seams blew up or cracked Black diamonds came hard won Generations toiled and hacked For a pittance and black lung Crushed by tub or stone Together And alone How the young and old Paid the price of coal Eighteen sixty-seven My angel's gone to heaven He'll be happy there Sunlight and sweet clean air They gather round the glass Tough hewers and crutters Child trappers and putters The little foals and half-marrows Who pushed And pulled the barrows The hod boys And the rolleywaymen 5.15 a.m. |

Pay day We're packin' 'em in Six-gun annie And buffalo jill But who's to say They'll be back again For a refill? Honey, you know the drill Ain't no left turn Down sleepy time street You gotta be fast But you gotta stay loose Thinking On your feet Slick as grass Through a goose We gotta Rationalise The payroll Is giving me chills You and me's Getting organised It's kill or be killed Honey, you know the drill Well they can all look down On sucker row But they all forget The tallest trees From acorns grow Though they ain't yet I never look down On a sucker stake They all pay the bills I never gave a sucker An even break And I never will A beautiful vision Keeps coming to me I see A miracle mile Flying in For free Service With a smile High rollers Fancy hotels Big time singers Topping the bill You gotta have a feel For the stuff that sells Call it a skill Honey, you know the drill Somebody's gotta crack A whip around here Who's Minding the store? Shake it up Sell some beer Money walking Through the door Annie's arriving At a dangerous age Don't you Go getting ill Get another woman Up in the cage Who ain't over the hill Honey, you know the drill |

We're taking on water
Diesel and stores Laying up awhile Before I'm back on board They're patching her up To go fishing again They're welding her rudder Scrubbing her keel Scars on her belly Need time to heal In the dock With the trawlermen I know all the people There's nobody new Soon we'll be leaving With the same old crew On the green water The tumbling sea They ain't running Like the good old days Time's just slipping Down the old slipways In the dock So dear to me Dark is the night I need a guiding light To keep me From foundering On the rocks My only prayer Is just to see you there At the end Of my wandering Back in the dock ah~ I could use a layoff Getting my strength back But there's a loan to pay off And a few skipjack So it's a turnaround Back in the southerly wind Pirates coming in To steal our gold You can count yourself lucky With a profit in the hold In the dock When we come in Dark is the night I need a guiding light To keep me From foundering On the rocks My only prayer Is just to see you there At the end Of my wandering Back in the dock |

Around the time of 'clambake'
Movie number twenty-five You and the lying dutchman Are still in overdrive You're as strong as when you started Mississippi in your soul You can still be marlon brando And the king of rock and roll It isn't just the records No, you must have hollywood The songs alone are not enough That much is understood You'll soon be back in memphis Maybe then you'll know what to do The storylines they're giving you Are just not ringing true Oh, it's a ways to go Back to Tupelo it's a ways to go Back to Tupelo 간주중 When you're young and beautiful Your dreams are all ideals Later on it's not the same Lord, everything is real Sixteen hundred miles of highway Roll back to the truth And a song to give your mother In your first recording booth Around the time of 'clambake' That old dream's still rolling on Sometimes there'll be the feeling Things are going wrong The morning star is fading Lord, the Mississippi's cold You can still be marlon brando And the king of rock and roll But it's a ways to go Back to Tupelo it's a ways to go Back to Tupelo |

It's the end of a perfect day
For surfer boys and girls The sun's dropping down in the bay And falling off the world There's a diamond in the sky Our evening star In our shangri-la Get that fire burning strong Right here and right now It's here and then it's gone There's no secret, anyhow We may never love again To the music of guitars In our shangri-la Tonight your beauty burns Into my memory The wheel of heaven turns Above us endlessly This is all the heaven we've got Right here where we are In our shangri-la Tonight your beauty burns Into my memory The wheel of heaven turns Above us endlessly This is all the heaven we've got Right here where we are In our shangri-la |

I got shot off my horse
So what? I'm up again And playing In one of these Big saloons on main You can come up here Take a look Around these sinners' dens You're only ever going to find One or two real games Nobody's driving Me underground Not yet anyway But either on the strip Or on the edge of town Everybody pays Everybody pays to play Yeah, you ought to stay Right where you are In sawdust land It's probably the Safest place to be With your Greasy little pork pies And your shoestring hands It makes No difference to me All those directions Which we never took To go our different ways Who went and wrote The oldest story in the book? Everybody pays Everybody pays to play Curl up inside A boxcar dream And disappear With a couple Low roller friends You were never one For trouble So get out of here I knew the game Was dangerous back then But nobody's breezing Through these swinging doors Just ups and walks away Everybody has to leave Some blood here on the floor Everybody pays Everybody pays to play |

So many mouths to feed on the farm
Sonny was the second to the last one born His mama ran away and his daddy beat him bad And he grew up wild good love he never had He had a left like Henry's hammer A right like Betty Bamalam Rode with the muggers in the dark and dread And all them sluggers went down like lead Well he hung with the hoods he wouldn't stroke the fans But he had dynamite in both his hands Boom bam like the slammer door The bell and the can and the bodies on the floor Beware the bear's in town Somebody's money says the bear's going down Yeah, the bear never smiles Sonny's going down for miles and miles Sonny's going down for miles and miles The writers didn't like him the fight game jocks With his lowlife backers and his hands like rocks They didn't want to have a bogey man They didn't like him and he didn't like them Black Cadillac alligator boots Money in the pockets of his sharkskin suits Some say the bear took a flop They couldn't believe it when they saw him drop He had a left like Henry's hammer A right like Betty Bamalam Rode with the muggers in the dark and dread And all them sluggers went down like lead Joe Louis was his hero he tried to be the same But a criminal child wears a ball and chain So the civil rights people didn't want him on the throne And the hacks and the cops wouldn't leave him alone Beware the bear's in town somebody's money says The bear's going down Yeah, the bear never smiles Sonny's going down for miles and miles Sonny's going down for miles and miles At the foot of his bed with his feet on the floor There was dope in his veins and a pistol on the drawer There was no investigation as such He hated needles but he knew too much Cris-crossed on his back Scars from his daddy like slavery tracks The second-last child was the second-last king Never again was it the same in the ring He had a left like Henry's hammer A right like Betty Bamalam Rode with the muggers in the dark and dread And all them sluggers went down like lead They never could be sure about the day he was born A motherless child set to working on the farm And they never could be sure about the day he died The bear was the king they cast aside Beware the bear's in town Somebody's money says the bear's going down Yeah, the bear never smiles Sonny's going down for miles and miles Sonny's going down for miles and miles Some day they're gonna write a Blues for fighters. It'll just be for Slow guitar, soft trumpet and a bell Sonny Liston 1962 |

If I'm over the moon
It's because I'm over you A day at a time And I'm tickety-boo I don't carry on The way I used to Whoop de doo If I'm doing great It's because when I get home I don't go straight To my answerphone And the tears don't come The way they used to Whoop de doo So many little things Are so much better now They were only the little things Anyhow If I'm over the moon It's because that's what I am Funny that once I used to give a damn And I'd do anything In the whole wide world for you Whoop de doo Anything Anything you'd want me to Whoop de doo |

One thing was leading to the next
I bit off more than I could chew I had the power to sign the cheques It wasn't difficult to do I couldn't stay and face the music So many reasons why I won't be sending postcards From Paraguay I robbed a bank full of dinero A great big mountain of dough So it was goodbye companero And cheerio I couldn't stay and face the music So many reasons why I won't be sending postcards From Paraguay I never meant to be a cheater But there was blood on the wall I had to steal from peter To pay what I owed to Paul I couldn't stay and face the music So many reasons why I won't be sending postcards From Paraguay |

Brew the coffee in a bucket
Double straight man and banjo If you don't got the snake oil Buster, you don't got a show In our pockets Keeps the party going on? Who puts the doh-re-me It's the man Who sells the potions I'm just one who plays the songs Now they generally buys The bigger size They usually rub it in I drank it once, it tasted Like grease and paraffin It's mostly alcohol, okay You can't deny it's strong We was going through the motions 'Til the doctor came along There stands the bottle Ladies and gentlemen All these bottles Don't have to tell you, friends These days miracles Don't come falling from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guy When the monkeyshine is flying And he's promising the cure He says the french For your lovesick blues La maladie d'amour He gets the chumps all laughing But he gets a few to buy Here's to beefsteak When you're hungry And whiskey when you're dry Now the band'll blow their moolah Like sailors gone ashore Now we're going to west helena To gamble, drink and whore Let's you and me All make whoopee Here's mud in your eye Here's to all the gals you ever want And heaven when you die There stands the bottle Ladies and gentlemen All these bottles Don't have to tell you, friends These days miracles Don't come falling from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guy There's a big cheese with a cigar Been sizing up the show He wants to get the doctor Pitching on the radio I will make a switch to guitar But the rules all still apply They want to trust somebody Yeah, they want a stand up guy There stands the bottle Here's to absent friends All these bottles Dead soldiers in the end These days miracles Don't come falling from the sky Raise your glasses to the doctor To a stand up guy To the doctor A stand up guy |
