《Al Bowlly’s In Heaven》歌词

[00:00:28] Well we were heroes then and the girls were all pretty

[00:00:38] And a uniform was a lucky charm bought you the key to the city

[00:00:49] We used to dance the whole night through

[00:00:51] While Al Bowlly sang The Very Thought Of You

[00:00:59] Now Bowlly's in heaven and I'm in limbo now

[00:01:10] Well I gave my youth to king and country

[00:01:15] But what's my country done for me but sentenced me to misery

[00:01:31] I traded my helmet and my parachute

[00:01:35] For a pair of crutches and a demob suit

[00:01:41] Al Bowlly's in heaven and I'm in limbo now

[00:01:51] Hard times hard hard times

[00:01:56] Hostels and missions and dosser's soup lines

[00:02:01] Can't close me eyes on a bench or a bed

[00:02:06] For the sound of some battle raging in my head

[00:02:11] Old friends you lose so many

[00:02:23] You get run around all over town

[00:02:26] The wear and the tear oh it just drives you down

[00:02:33] St Mungo's with its dirty old sheets

[00:02:37] Beats standing all day down on Scarborough Street

[00:02:42] Al Bowlly's in heaven and I'm in limbo now

[00:04:06] Can't stay here you got to foot slog

[00:04:11] Once in a blue moon you might find a job

[00:04:16] Sleep in the rain you sleep in the snow

[00:04:21] When the beds are all taken you've got nowhere to go

[00:04:25] Well I can see me now I'm back there on the dance floor

[00:04:32] Oh with a blonde on me arm red head to spare

[00:04:42] Spit on my shoes and shine in me hair

[00:04:47] And there's Al Bowlly he's up on a stand

[00:04:52] Oh that was a voice and that was a band

[00:05:00] Al Bowlly's in heaven and I'm in limbo now
