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
|
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 love me broke
|

|
I nearly froze to deathly Russia burned up in Thumbatoo
|
I got drunk down in Australia and nearly made me a king of rule
|
But now my big dreams all have failed my big plan's gone with the wind
|
And if I ever get back to London town I'm never gonna leave again
|
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
