Cock Sparrer

Goodbye

Cock Sparrer


We were born by the Thames' running water, sons of the social disorder 
Go to school, get a job, be a fool or a yob and prepare yourself for gaol 
But we tired of the constant surrender to those with a hidden agenda 
So we fought with the best, now it's time for a rest as we say our last farewell 

[Chorus]
Goodbye, we're calling it day, we're having it away, we're gonna say goodbye 
Goodbye, there's nothing left to say, we're getting in the way 
We're gonna say goodbye 

For the holidays in Devon, for the spirit of seventy-seven 
For the laughs and the ligs and the drinks and the gigs 
And the making of the fuss 
For the friends who knew just where to find us 
For the mates who were always behind us 
When you're next in a pub or a bar or a club, have a drink on us
