Old Siam, Sir
(专辑: Back To The Egg - 1979)
In a
village in Old Siam, sir, there's a
lady who's lost her way. In an effort to find a
man, sir, she found herself in the
old UK. She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough. She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough. In a
village in old east end, sir, she mea fellow who made her real. Took her rushes to show, this man, sir, He met her dad at the
wedding meal. [guitar solo] In a
letter from Old Siam, sir, came an awful tale of woe. She decided the
only answer was to get off a
pile of dough. She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough. She waited 'round in Walthamstowe, she skated 'round in Scarborough. When a
relative told her man, sir, he directed her not to stay. In a
village in Old Siam, sir, there's a
lady who'se lost her way. [guitar solo] In a
