Home > Lyrics > London DannyLondon Danny London Danny is a real bad pennyThe one man time has told me I should fearFor the girl you left behind, she said she would be mineSo why did you have to come and show your face round hereFor she always said that time would make it rightBut now I always hear her sighing in the nightAnd don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd goAh but please now don't you take her from me, London DannyWell I've learned to listen for your name round townWhe people talk of your success in city lifeBut I could never tell if she heard them talk as wellOr rue the day she ever was a poor man's wifeFor she always said that time would make it rightBut now I always hear her sighing in the nightAnd don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd goAh but please now don't you take her from me, London DannyWell me' hands are black while yours are clean and cleverThere's ways you know to turn her pretty headWell its all that I can do when me' working day is throughSongtexteTo let her heart beat me to sleep each night in bedFor she always said that time would make it rightBut now I always hear her sighing in the nightAnd don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd goAh but please now don't you take her from me, London DannyWell London Danny you're a real bad pennyThe one man time has told me I should fearFor the girl you left behind, she said she would be mineSo why did you have to come and show your face round hereFor she always said that time would make it rightBut now I always hear her sighing in the nightAnd don't think I don't know, if you asked her then she'd goAh but please now don't you take her from me, London Danny Aus Songtexte Mania
