Little did I think when the judge first spoke
Those awful words to me
That I would feel again the cold winds blow
And a heart would beat in 'Babbacombe' Lee

I was born to lead a life of sorrow
I've friends hang their heads in shame

Growing tired and weary of the morrow
Tortured by my terrible name
When I was fifteen, my father called to me
Saying "Now you are a man and all men work
There's a lady and they say her name's Miss Keyes
Her pony's very old, it needs a nurse"

For eighteen months I worked for her at ?Hadley Glen?
She was like a mother to me
But time goes slowly when you're thinking wishfully
Of all the other places to be

There were boats drifting in the harbour
There were sailors talking in the town
That's the life for a boy who wants to wander
For a man who doesn't want to settle down

Other Fairport Convention song Lyrics
  • I Dont Know Where I Stand
    "Funny day, looking for laughter and finding it there
    Sunny day, braiding white flowers and leaves in my hair
    Picked up a pencil and wrote 'I love you' in my finest hand
    Wanted to send it but I don't know where I stand..."
  • Percys Song
    "Bad news, bad news, come to me where I sleep"
    Turn, turn, turn again
    "Say, one of your friends is in trouble deep"
    Turn, turn, to the rain and the wind..."
  • Time Will Show the Wiser
    "My mind keeps on telling me that this is no good
    And my heart is aching, that tells me I should
    But only time will show the wiser
    I've fallen in love with a girl that's not mine..."
  • If (Stomp)
    "If I were rich enough
    To make you need me as much as I need you
    If I could pitch enough
    You'd realise what a little country bread can do..."
  • Decameron
    "She doesn't see the day to day
    No colours where the children play
    She doesn't see the things she's sown
    White crosses painted on the door..."
  • Jack ODiamonds
    "Jack O'Diamonds, on the move
    Jack O'Diamonds, one-eyed knave
    On the move, hits the street
    Bumps his head, on the ground..."
  • Chelsea Morning
    "Woke up big this Chelsea morning and the first thing that I heard
    Was a song outside my window
    And the traffic wrote the words
    It came ringing up like Christmas bells..."
  • Sun Shade
    "Dying's not easy today
    Trying but can't get away
    Feel just the almost touch of her hand and the trees in her hair
    ?Lies float? the sun, she saw only me in the sky..."
