Dirty Davey — текст песни (Levellers)

(Nick Burbridge)
Dirty Davey`s down the front and he`s met the coppers there
They`ll be taking you in cos they hate your skin
And he`s dragged away by the hair
CHORUS
It`s a kick in the head and a prison bed
And you tell me it`s the law
Well Davey`s out on two weeks bail and he`s down the town to score
When it all falls in and he`s pinned by the chin
And they`vve rusted every floor
CHORUS
Davey`s down the old grey squat
And he`s lying with his lass
When there`s a brick through the pane
ANd he`s out on the lane
With the bailiffs and the glass
CHORUS
The court comes up on Monday morning and Davey`s in the dock
He can`t stop his tears when he gets two years
And you can`t turn back the clock
CHORUS
Well Davey`s had it up to here
Banging his head on the wall
So he tied his pants to the prison bars
And he`s hung till he`s clear of it all
CHORUS
There`s a law for the rich and a lwa for the poor
And a law for Dirty Davey
His body`s gone but his soul lives on
Here`s to you Dirty Davey
Corrupt, corrupt from the bottom to the top
And you tell me it`s the law
