Lyrics for Home For A Rest by Spirit Of The West:
| | | Artist: | Spirit Of The West |
| | Album: | Save This House | | Track: | Home For A Rest | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 60 | | | | Lyrics: | You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best
I've been gone for a month, I've been drunk since
I left
These so-called vacations will soon be my death
I'm so sick from the drink I need
home for a rest.
We arrived in December and London was cold
We stayed in the bars
along Charing Cross Road
We never saw nothin' but brass taps and oak
Kept a shine on the
bar with the sleeves of our coats
CHORUS:
You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my
best
I've been gone for a week
I've been drunk since I left
And these so-called
vacations
Will soon be my death
I'm so sick from the drink
I need home for a
rest
Take me home....
Euston Station the train journey North
In the buffet car
we lurched back and forth
Past old crooked dykes through Yorkshire's green fields
We were
flung into dance as the train jigged and reeled
- CHORUS -
By the light of the
moon, she'd drift through the streets
A rare old perfume, so seductive and sweet
She'd
tease us and flirt, as the pubs all closed down
Then walk us on home and deny us a
round
You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best
I've been gone for a
month
I've been drunk since I left
And these so-called vacations
Will soon be my
death
I'm so sick from the drink
I need home for a rest
Take me
home....
The gas heater's empty, it's damp as a tomb
The spirits we drank now ghosts
in the room
I'm knackered again, come on sleep take me soon
And don't lift up my head
'till the the twelve bells at noon
You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best
I've
been gone for a month
I've been drunk since I left
And these so-called vacations
Will
soon be my death
I'm so sick from the drink
I need home for a rest
Take me home | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
