about

lyrics

i don't know what was going down
in the dark recesses of my soul
if you see something amicable
darling i would be the last to know

outside a train station in birmingham
let the rain wash my boots caked with coal
well i heard you needed me back in athens town
ah but darling i would be the last to know

i heard your daddy he don't like me much
'cause i come from the wrong side of your moat
if he could i know he would steal my crutch
but then darling i would be the last to know
