The Black Swan - Jake Thackray, Roger Webb And His Orchestra

Down at the Black Swan

We’ll go sing our love song

We’ll sit, we’ll booze

We’ve got nothing to lose

We’ve lost it all, lost it all

Down at the Black Swan

We’ll drink hard, we’ll drink strong

Drink deep, drink long,

Drink our heads off, drink on

Now that she’s gone, now she’s gone.

Give us another pint, one more pint

Landlord of your very, very, best bitter beer

We’ll be here all night

We’re on a bender we’re tanking up

We don’t care

We don’t go home tonight

There’s nobody there.

Now she’s gone

Now she’s gone

Now she’s gone

Go to bed early, girl

Go with a book

Go alone, go easy

Your life is your own

Don’t lose it all, lose it all

Think on me kindly

But don’t come and find me

I’m lost, I’ve lost, heart

And eyes are both crossed

Now that she’s gone, now she’s gone

Give us another pint, one more pint

Landlord, of your very very best bitter beer

We’ll be here all night

We’ve had a skinful, we’ve supped some stuff

We don’t care

We don’t go home tonight

There’s nobody there

Now she’s gone

Now she’s gone

Now she’s gone
