Tom Robinson - The Winter Of '79 songtekst
Je score:
All you kids that just sit and whine? You should have been there back in '79? You say we're giving you a real hard time? You boys are really breaking my heart? Spurs beat Arsenal, what a game? The blood was running in the drains? Intercity took the trains? And really took the place apart? That was the year Nan Harris died? And Charlie Jones committed suicide? The world we knew busted open wide? In the winter of '79 I'd been working on and off? A pint of beer was still ten bob? My brand new Bonneville got ripped off? I more or less give up trying? They stopped the Social in the spring? And quite a few communists got run in? And National Service come back in? In the winter of '79? When Marco's caff went up in flames? The Vambo boys took the blame? The SAS come and took our names? In the winter of '79 It was us poor bastards took the chop? When the tubes gone up and the buses stopped? The top people still come out on top? The government never resigned? The Carib Club got petrol bombed? The National Front was getting awful strong? They done in Dave and Dagenham Ron? In the winter of '79? When all the gay geezers got put inside And coloured kids was getting crucified? A few fought back and a few folks died? In the winter of '79 Yes a few of us fought? And a few of us died? In the winter of '79?
