19 Jul 07 - 01:39 AM (#2106531) Subject: Lyr Req: IF I'D STAYED AROUND (Rab Noakes) From: Peace "IF I'D STAYED AROUND" written by Rab Noakes Every road I stand upon Every new place that I find Loving someone, remembering more Always something takes my time CHORUS: What would have happened if I'd stayed around Would I have been with you? What would have happened if I'd stayed around Would I have been with you? The sun sets on singers on the sands out of sight Walking their weary ways back home My head is not heavy but my eyes and arms are full One thought's lingering to roam. CHORUS Girls in their forties and girls in their teens Girls with their husbands far from home Some with their hair down and some with their eyes closed All with their ribbons well undone. CHORUS Man by a roadside and in a factory Drivers on wagons going north Friends in a public bar with the dart-board as their guard Never turn to ask me what I'm worth. CHORUS Buying a present for a newborn child Drowning in whisky and gin Watching a girl child cry to my face With her mother asking where I've been. CHORUS It was a bugger getting to it.

Sometimes the things get tucked away in places and are darned near impossible to find. I just got lucky. Thank you for asking after this song. I've never heard/seen it before. |
