Lyrics for The Ballad Of Robbie Jones by The Levellers:
| | | Artist: | The Levellers |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | The Ballad Of Robbie Jones | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 68 | | | | Lyrics: | There was Robbie Jones
He used to walk so tall
You know he'd hurt no one at all
Chased
the girls around the world
Danced them round the dance halls
We'd have a drink and then
he'd sink
Into nostalgic talk
We carried him home in the fallen snow
When he was too
drunk to walk
Then came the day
We were sent away
We got our papers
Posted
trough the door
And sent off to war
Dear old Tom
He'd sing a song and he'd play the
guitar
He'd tell you all the stories
Of his travels near and far
Signed up one day to
learn a trade
But that dream didn't go far
He'd be fighting Argentinians
With his gun
not his guitar
He used to walk so tall
You know he'd hurt no one at all
Chased the
girls around the world
Danced them round the dance halls
We'd have a drink and then he'd
sink
Into nostalgic talk
We carried him home in the fallen snow
When he was too drunk
to walk
Then came the day
We were sent away
We got our papers
Posted trough
the door
And sent off to war
Dear old Tom
He'd sing a song and he'd play the
guitar
He'd tell you all the stories
Of his travels near and far
Signed up one day to
learn a trade
But that dream didn't go far
He'd be fighting Argentinians
With his gun
not his guitar | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
