Bathtub Gin - Graham Parker

Oh, i needed that bathtub gin

Right there, right then

Knocked up by enthusiasts

Who work in shifts where the air is thin

Oh, i needed that bathtub gin

Right there, right then

The ships go out, the ships come in

Then they start slingin' that bathtub gin

Gets you out of your head your evening’s set

Puts a hole in your liver like you never had yet

But then oh, I needed that bathtub gin

Right there, right then

Well you know Peggy, Jimmy and Nat

They cook this shit up in their council flat

I crossed them once so I can’t go in

Help m out brother, score me bathtub gin

Bcause the ships go out, the ships come in

Then they start slingin' that bathtub gin

Yes it’s wicked, wicked as sin

I’ve had so many troubles I got wicked again

But then oh, I needed that bathtub gin

Right there, right then

Bathtub gin, bathtub gin

Gimme, gimme, gimme that bathtub gin
