lyrics

In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning
Hangin’ Round Was A Bad Idea
I Packed My Bags, Picked Up My Guitar
And Said “I’d Better Get The Fuck Out Of Here.”
I May Blame My Mother And Father
I May Blame This Evil Land
But It’s Such A Goddamn Cryin Shame
They Put A Gun In Young Man’s Hand

There Were Women Cryin’
And Bullets Flyin’
There Were Old Men Sighin’
And Good Men Dyin’
And Every Body’s Lyin’
About The Good Old Days
About The Good Old Days

In The Cold Clear Bitter Light Of Day
I Couldn’t See If My Way Was Clear
I Heard The Sound, I Saw The Light
And Said “I’d Better Get The Fuck Out Of Here.”
I May Blame My Mother And Father
I May Blame This Evil Land
But It’s Such A Goddamn Cryin Shame
They Put A Gun In Young Man’s Hand

There Were Women Cryin’
And Bullets Flyin’
There Were Old Men Sighin’
And Good Men Dyin’
And Every Body’s Lyin’
About The Good Old Days
About The Good Old Days

There’ve been far too many cold winters
Too many times when they have been near
Can’t sleep in the day and I’m up all night
Sayin “I’d Better Get The Fuck Out Of Here.”
I May Blame My Mother And Father
I May Blame This Evil Land
But It’s Such A Goddamn Cryin Shame
They Put A Gun In Young Man’s Hand

There Were Women Cryin’
And Bullets Flyin’
There Were Old Men Sighin’
And Good Men Dyin’
And Every Body’s Lyin’
About The Good Old Days
About The Good Old Days

The Organ Grinders UK

Way too old to die young and leave good looking corpses, The Organ Grinders formed in early 2010 from the ashes of briefly reformed 1970's punk rockers Control Zone, and The Limiters, who rocked hard in the 1990's. The Organ Grinders play their own eclectic take on punk rock. ... more
