Duke Special - Brixton Leaves lyrics

rate me

Rose, she ain't like the others

she spins a dervish mother

her bright brown hair and her acorn eyes

she gets me there when she hypnotises

but Brixton leaves me alone

Another drunken evening

Red wine you're so deceiving

Her photograph is my only friend

this one wild year just won't seem to end

and Brixton leaves me alone

But the sun will rise once more,

well it better

the sun will rise once more

if we let her

but Brixton leaves me alone

Just one more night in london

Home is a distant drumlin

with its 'no retreat' and 'our time has come'

well, curse those fifes and damn those drums

Belfast leaves me alone

But the sun will rise once more,

well it better

the sun will rise once more

if we let her

but Brixton leaves me alone
