London Danny is a real bad penny |
|
The one man time has told me I should fear |
|
For the girl you left behind, she said she would be mine |
|
So why did you have to come and show your face round here |
|
Chorus |
|
For she always said that time would make it right |
|
But now I always hear her sighing in the night |
|
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd go |
|
Ah but please now don't you take her from me, London Danny |
|
Well I've learned to listen for your name round town |
|
Whe people talk of your success in city life |
|
But I could never tell if she heard them talk as well |
|
Or rue the day she ever was a poor man's wife |
|
Chorus |
|
For she always said that time would make it right |
|
But now I always hear her sighing in the night |
|
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd go |
|
Ah but please now don't you take her from me, London Danny |
|
Well me' hands are black while yours are clean and clever |
|
There's ways you know to turn her pretty head |
|
Well its all that I can do when me' working day is through |
|
To let her heart beat me to sleep each night in bed |
|
Chorus |
|
For she always said that time would make it right |
|
But now I always hear her sighing in the night |
|
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd go |
|
Ah but please now don't you take her from me, London Danny |
|
Well London Danny you're a real bad penny |
|
The one man time has told me I should fear |
|
For the girl you left behind, she said she would be mine |
|
So why did you have to come and show your face round here |
|
Chorus |
|
For she always said that time would make it right |
|
But now I always hear her sighing in the night |
|
And don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd go |
|
Ah but please now don't you take her from me, London Danny |
