Down by the Jetty Blues |
| I’m going down by the jetty |
| Tonight the tide is high |
| It’s tankers in the channel laying |
| Flames up in the sky |
| I’m going down by the jetty |
| (Be)fore I leave this world behind |
| 'Cause that oil slick on the water |
| Is band to ease my worried mind |
| My face is slowly burning |
| My eyes are turning red |
| In the shadow of the refinery, baby |
| Tonight I’ll make my bed |
| I’m going down by the jetty |
| (Be)fore I leave this world behind |
| (Fore I leave this world behind) |
| 'Cause that oil slick on the water |
| Is band to ease my worried mind |
| — Harmonica and Guitar Solo — |
| The air is filled with poison |
| The sea is thick with grease |
| Somewhere in this hell on earth |
| I’ll surely get some peace |
| With one foot on the water |
| And one foot on the pier |
| I’m ready for the next world |
| To get me outta here |
| I’m going down by the jetty |
| (Be)fore I leave this world behind |
| 'Cause that oil slick on the water |
| Is bound to ease my worried mind |
| Bye bye, cruel world… |
