Rolling Up, Rolling Down Songtext
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
When I first saw a TEU
Rolling up, rolling down
I wondered where they stowed the crew
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Cargo comes in TEU′s
Rolling up, rolling down
A twenty-foot box, boys, filled with booze
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
There's a Tilbury girl called Kettle Jane
Rolling up, rolling down
First on the boil then off again
She goes rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
She′s got a mate called 'Teapot Anne'
Rolling up, rolling down
She gets well brewed, she likes a man
She goes rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Those Tilbury girls go ′round in pairs
Rolling up, rolling down
You′ll never catch them unawares
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Well we're the boys, can see her through (hah!)
Rolling up, rolling down
To hell with the cargo and the TEU′s
Let's go down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rolling down the river
When I first saw a TEU
Rolling up, rolling down
I wondered where they stowed the crew
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Cargo comes in TEU′s
Rolling up, rolling down
A twenty-foot box, boys, filled with booze
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
There's a Tilbury girl called Kettle Jane
Rolling up, rolling down
First on the boil then off again
She goes rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
She′s got a mate called 'Teapot Anne'
Rolling up, rolling down
She gets well brewed, she likes a man
She goes rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Those Tilbury girls go ′round in pairs
Rolling up, rolling down
You′ll never catch them unawares
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Well we're the boys, can see her through (hah!)
Rolling up, rolling down
To hell with the cargo and the TEU′s
Let's go down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
Rolling up, rolling down
We all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
To go rolling down the river
