A Smugglers Song |
| On the first of January, our Johnnie kissed his Mary |
| While Mary squeezed her Johnnies hand they watched the sky explode |
| By the turn of February our Johnnie missed his Mary |
| Oh and Mary sings «it breaks my heart to see my Johnnie go…» |
| But He’s off tae cairt the hookey, ask me nowt ye’ll get no lie |
| 18 wheeler, dodgy dealer, tested, tried &true |
| Aw keep yer hameldaeme, my Johnnie is my treacle pie |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
| Chanel’s number 4 &6, knock-off watches caps and kicks |
| Pocket tazers, folding razors, all manner o' hell |
| Chinese crackers, party poppers, wads o' bills to fix the coppers |
| Dodgy fags and Gucci bags, yer pals’d never tell |
| He’s off tae cairt the hookey, ask me nowt ye’ll get no lie |
| 18 wheeler, dodgy dealer, tested, tried &true |
| Aw keep yer hameldaeme, my Johnnie is my treacle pie |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
| Polish vodka, bootleg whisky, bathtub gin and slabs o' Tyskie |
| Potions, draps and poisons for t' give ye back yer glow |
| Fun for all the lonely laddies, racy mags and plastic ladies |
| Creams and gels and magic pills t' make yer pecker grow |
| He’s off tae cairt the hookey, ask me nowt ye’ll get no lie |
| 18 wheeler, dodgy dealer, tested, tried &true |
| Aw keep yer hameldaeme, my Johnnie is my treacle pie |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
| 18 carat plated copper, arsenic for yer hubby’s cuppa |
| Turkish wigs and wooden legs all hung up in a row |
| Screw your tariffs, dues and taxes, up the peddlers, hawks and poachers |
| God go with ye Johnnie boy and see ye safely home |
| He’s off tae cairt the hookey, ask me nowt ye’ll get no lie |
| 18 wheeler, dodgy dealer, tested, tried &true |
| Aw keep yer hameldaeme, my Johnnie is my treacle pie |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
| Watch the wall my darlin' while his rig goes rollin' through |
