Old Vancouver Town

Lyrics

Well, One thing when it's raining and the streets are bloody cold
 You can feel it in your fingers and the faces of the old
 And still I can remember and only mainly when I'm told
 Of life around the corner and the maladies of old
 The drunken midnight choir that Leonard talked about
 Was put beneath my window and the songs evolving out
 Out the door to join them, "contralto" I will shout
 We'll stagger till the morning with a whiskey and a stout
 Cause these are the days, although the church is ringing
 We'll make the rounds and pack the crowds and leave the places singing
 Pass me down (Pass me down)
 Three pints down
 We'll start the fights and end the nights in old Vancouver town
 Singin' through the back streets, the fountains that are chilled
 You'll hear us clear to Grandville and the Fraser valey Hills
 Down along the station tryin' to (????
 ) you'll hear a mighty chorus throught hte alley (??)
 Take me round (Take me round)
 Through old Vancouver town
 The darling at the ballroom the petal at the Crown
 Take me round (Take me round)
 Through old Vancouver town
 The railway, the road the bailiff and the pump
 Daniel boats of 15 married daughter
 Of metals in the war and a mean scotch and water
 He'll raise up in the morni' with a pillow to his head sayin'
 What do you need?
 What do you got?
 What do you want?
 I'll take a shot!
 You got the lot!
 You lovin' Scot!
 So, What do you need? What do you got? (repeat three times)
 Cause these are the days, although the church is ringing
 We'll make the rounds and pack the crowds and leave the places singing
 Pass me down (Pass me down)
 Three pints down
 We'll start the fights and end the nights in old Vancouver town
 We'll start the fights and end the nights in old Vancouver town
 We'll start the fights and end the nights in old Vancouver town
