It`s A Long Way To London Town — текст песни (Buck Owens)

Well it`s a long long way to London it`s a long way to London town
When you`ve got no way of goin` but pickin` em up and puttin` em down
There`s a got cold cold rain a fallin` I hope to God that I don`t drown
But I`ve got a sweet baby waitin` and it`s a long way to London town
One day I packed up my belongings said I could make myself a name
I knew that somewhere away out yonder there was awaitin` me fortune and fame
But now my rainbow`s end has vanished my pot of gold`s gone up in smoke
And I`m just tryin` to get back to baby and Lord I hope my baby love me broke
[ dobro ]
I nearly froze to deathly Russia burned up in Thumbatoo
I got drunk down in Australia and nearly made me a king of rule
But now my big dreams all have failed my big plan`s gone with the wind
And if I ever get back to London town I`m never gonna leave again
It`s a long long way to London it`s a long way to London town
When you`ve got no way of goin` but pickin` em up and puttin` em down
