I never thought it would happen With me and the girl from Clapham Out on the windy common That night I ain't forgotten Where she dealt out the rations With some or other passions I said you are a lady Perhaps she said I may be We moved into a basement With talks of our engagement We stayed in by the telly Although the room was smelly We spent our time just kissin' The Railway Arms we're missin' But love had got us hooked up And all our time it took up I got a job with Stanley He said I'd come in handy And he started me on Monday So I had a bath on Sunday I worked eleven hours And bought the girl some flowers She said she'd seen a doctor And nothing now could stop her I worked all through the winter The weather brass and bitter I put away a tenner Each week to make her better And when the time was ready We had to sell the telly Late evenings by the fire And little kicks inside her This morning at four fifty I took her rather nifty Down to an incubator Where thirty minutes later She gave birth to a daughter Within a year a walker She looked just like her mother If there could be another And now she's two years older Her mother's with a soldier She left me with my drinkin' Became a proper stingin' The devil came and took me From bar to street to bookie No more nights by the telly No more nights nappies smelling Alone here in the kitchen I feel there's somethin' missin' I beg for some forgiveness But beggin's not my business And she won't write a letter Although I always tell her And so it's my assumption I'm really up the junction
