down all the days

christy brown a clown around town

now he's a man of renown from dingle to down

i type with me toes

suck stout through me nose

and where it's gonna end

god only knows

down all the days

the tap-tap-tapping

of the typewriter pays

the gentle rattling

of the drays

down all the days

i have often had to depend upon

the kindness of strangers

but i've never been asked

and i never replied

if i supported the glasgow rangers

down all the days.
