(It’s a Long Way to) Londontown

[Verse 1]
Well, it's a long, long way to London
It's a long way to London town
When you've got no way of goin'
But pickin' em up and puttin' em down
There's a got cold, cold rain a fallin'
I hope to God that I don't drown
But I've got a sweet baby waitin'
And it's a long way to London town

[Verse 2]
One day I packed up my belongings
Said I could make myself a name
I knew that somewhere away out yonder
There was awaitin' me fortune and fame
But now my rainbow's end has vanished
My pot of gold's gone up in smoke
And I'm just tryin' to get back to baby
And Lord, I hope my baby'll love me broke

[Verse 3]
I nearly froze to death in Russia
Burned up in Timbuktu
I got drunk down in Australia
And nearly married me a kangaroo
But now my big dreams all have failed
My big plans gone with the wind
And if I ever get back to London town
I'm never gonna leave again

[Outro]
It's a long, long way to London
I's a long way to London town
When you've got no way of goin'
But pickin' em up and puttin' em down
