Daisy and Teddy had two Cockney boys And two Cockney sisters and they all shared their toys With old Rosie Rooke and Peggy O'Day They all lived together down in Lavender Lane
Lavender Lane, oh my Lavender Lane The people were poor and the people were plain They didn't have much but they shared what they gained Contented to drift along Lavender Lane
Oh Lord, such a pity that the world's gotta change
All of the houses were old and decayed The people were proud who lived in Lavender Lane Oh Lord, Lavender Lane Oh Lord, Lavender Lane
Sometimes I wanna get back home and do the things we did before And break down the old school tie, and all the la-di-do-dahs
The knobs and the toffs sent down two la-di-dahs To mix with the people and to drink in their bars They looked down their noses and they puffed their cigars Instead of 'off' they say 'orf', instead of 'yeah' they say 'ya'
And oh Lord And Ted and Daisy said, 'what a shame'
They'll knock all the houses down for financial gain And send all the people to a new town estate Oh Lord, they gutted Lavender Lane Whoa-oh, they gutted Lavender Lane
Sometimes I wanna get back home and do the things we did before And break down the old school tie, and all the la-di-do-dahs
In the great London Council a decision was made By the bright civil servants and the people in grey They sent all their navvies with their buckets and spades To knock all the houses down in Lavender Lane
But worst of all, they've taken all the people away Now only memories are all that remain Of all of the people down in Lavender Lane Oh Lord, they gutted Lavender Lane Whoa-oh, they gutted Lavender Lane Whoa-oh, they gutted Lavender Lane Whoa-oh, they gutted Lavender LaneTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
