ballad of robin winter-smith

mamma's in the kitchen rattlin' pans and the baby cries

on the tv news

somebody died

he was a crazy biker in a motorcycle ridin' daredevil show

in merry england

oh

twenty seven years old

he was tryin' to break the record

for jumpin' over cars

he was the champ

he fell a little bit short

oh

hit the ramp

this is the story

sad and it's gory of robin winter-smith

he was a very brave man if you get my drift

'cause he waved to the crowd

headed down the runway like a

man possessed

robin winter-smith

i guess he did his best

i make a livin' a-playin' these songs and i hang out in bars

i play my guitar

oh

but honey

i don't jump over cars

mamma's in the kitchen rattlin' pans and the baby cries

on the tv news

somebody died

he was a crazy biker in a motorcycle ridin' daredevil show

in merry england

oh

twenty seven years old
