lyrics

The bucky blues

Chorus
Mak mine a bucky A think am feelin’ lucky
Heeds up fur the fightin’ juice
If yer feelin’ rottin’ Ye’ll feel nothin’ when yer stottin’
The fightin’ juice is on the loose

Verse 1
Down in deepest Devon where it’s pretty close to heaven
In a corner so divine
There stands a Holy Abbey and it doesn’t look too shabby
Where they make my favourite wine

Refrain 1
I’m goin’ on a pilgrimage to ma favourite shrine
Gonna hire a bus and take ma mates to where the sun e’r shine

Chorus

Verse 2
When it a’ kicks aff an’ it’s afen enough
And ye think ye own the place
Ye’ll no remember nothin’ an’ ye’ll no be worth a button
Cause ye’ll be well gone off yer face

Refrain 2
We’ll lie there on the grassy lawn wi a barrel o’ fightin’ juice
And if the polis behave themsels we might declare a truce.

Chorus

Solo
