The Ballad Of Robbie Jones
There was Robbie Jones He used to walk so tall You know he'd hurt no one at all Chased the girls around the world Danced them round the dance halls
We'd have a drink and then he'd sink Into nostalgic talk We carried him home in the fallen snow When he was too drunk to walk
Then came the day We were sent away We got our papers Posted trough the door And sent off to war
Dear, old Tom He'd sing a song and he'd play the guitar He'd tell you all the stories Of his travels near and far
Signed up one day to learn a trade But that dream didn't go far He'd be fighting Argentinians With his gun not his guitar

Dear, old Tom He'd sing a song and he'd play the guitar He'd tell you all the stories Of his travels near and far
Signed up one day to learn a trade But that dream didn't go far He'd be fighting Argentinians With his gun not his guitar
