Blue Mink

Blue Mink was a British five-piece pop group, that existed from 1969 to 1974. Over that period they had six Top 20 hit singles in the UK Singles Chart, and released five studio based albums. According to Allmusic: "they have been immortalised on a string of compilation albums, each recounting the string of effervescent hits that established them among Britain's best-loved pop groups of the early 1970s." more »

Woman, get your head out of curlers. 
Time get your butt out of bed. 
Get down your hats and baggage, my child. 
Going back home, 
going back to the homestead. 

I'm a-gonna heat me some water, 
and put a shine upon my shoes. 
Telephone my ma, 
Keep the room above Joe's 
'Cause we're coming back, 
coming back to the homestead. 
Everything is packed, 
getting back to the homestead. 
This time, this time we'll stay. 

I know that we could have made it; 
we had ideas in our heads. 
And I wish somehow 
we could have saved it 
but we're Gasoline Alley bred. 
Yet the years haven't really been wasted, 
and I know it in my head. 
We did good for the life that we've tasted 
'cause we're Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley bred 

Woman, you can really believe it, 
I did everything a man could do. 
Breaking my back just to make us a dime. 
That won't mean a damn 
when no one wants to know you. 

Woman, I know how you're feeling. 
I've seen the hurt upon your face. 
How many time do you think that I've cried? 
Knowing every day that your heart was getting broken, 
holdin' back your pride til you were nearly chokin' 
Oh let's get away. 

chorus 

Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley Bred 
Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley Bred 
Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley Bred 
Gasoline Alley, Gasoline Alley Bred
