Yorkshire Grey

from Last Drop Of Empty by Dave Sutherland

lyrics

There’s a crowd on its way to the town tonight
The line is as far as you can see
They say there’s gonna be some blood shed alright
And that’s what everybody’s there to see

Well I don’t know his name
He is a stranger
A bricker from the Southside families
But he’s wide, tall handsome and amazing
And he’s paid to beat the bones right out of me

That’s alright with me
Cos I know you’re waiting by my door to keep me company
With the chances I’m taking for the money I’ll be making
Gonna be the last, gonna be the last chance, gonna be the last chance fight for me

So I hit him with the hammer anvil sidesweep
But it only got him down onto one knee
I hit him two times more
But he got up off the floor
I only made him angry

That’s alright with me
Cos I know you’re waiting by my door to keep me company
Cos the chances I’m taking for the money I’ll be making
It’s gonna be the last, gonna be the last chance, gonna be the last chance fight for me

Well I don’t recall a thing from this point after
I don’t recall my name who why or where
As the Yorkshire is no more
But still standing by my door
Another anniversary

That’s alright with me
Cos I know you’re waiting by my door to keep me company
Cos the chances I’m taking for the money I’ll be making
Gonna be the last, gonna be the last chance, gonna be the last chance fight for me

Yeah, gonna be the last chance fight for me
