Knees Must Lyrics

Leaving with your nightdress on

A mother to a feckless son

The talk of the town

For the carrying on

Said "Mother will you come with me

There's a coupla boys I have to see

Down by the boathouse

Cover of dark"

Knees must be had

Good boy's gone bad

Our wild Westway

Our darkest day

They came in on the westward side

Underneath a blood-red sky

Come galloping in

Sound the alarm

They're dealing out a dead man's hand

Wheeling out the contraband

You do or you die son

You fall or you stand

Knees must be had

Good boy's gone bad

Our wild Westway

Our darkest day

Knees must be had

Good boy's gone bad

Our wild Westway

Our darkest day

So tell me has your kingdom come

The wobbling of your jaw and tongue

And the blood in your heart

And the air in your lung

They emptied as the shot rang round

Jumping at the whip crack sound

It was piercing your eardrum

Cutting you down

Knees must be had

Good boy's gone bad

Our wild Westway

Our darkest day
