Goldie Lookin Chain - NEWPORT STATE OF MIND (YOU’RE NOT FROM NEWPORT) lyrics
[Goldie Lookin Chain - NEWPORT STATE OF MIND YOU’RE NOT FROM NEWPORT lyrics]
Next to Classic Cuts this is Newport
We don't even have a Pizza Hut
Newport, down the M4 motorway
Famous for cheese and chips
Not Craig Bellamy
I catch you in our kitchen, and hey Presto
I'm going to melt you if
You've never been to Chepstow
We had six nightclubs, but most closed down
Visit Newport, it's still a party town
Get on the dance floor, mind the smoking ban
You won't see Charlotte Church
Or Gavin Henson
Big up to Paul Flynn not the Welsh Assembly
That's in Cardiff so it don't mean shit to me
Shirley Bassey, she's just like the Queen
Not from Newport, and probably never been
See me at Bailey's on Tuesday for the quiz
But, you won't go, because the truth is
You're not from Newport
You've probably never been there either
I bet you a fiver you're not from Newport
You've probably never heard of Pillgwenlly
Or been to Liswerry you're not from Newport
Newport where your missus is a nutter
She's got curly teeth
But she walks with a stutter
If you wanna know about our little town
Pay money at the Severn Bridge
And come on down
Ride around all day, on a Newport bus
On the X15, and read the Argus
We got a sports village, and a velodrome
Six drive-through McDonalds for
Your journey home
From Newport Stadium to Rodney Parade
The Premier Inn, where you probably stayed
Don't have a Debenhams, but we got TKMaxx
Once you've had 'Port, you never goes backs
So if you want cheese on your chips
Medieval ships see mattresses in skips
Then comes take a trips
Visit John Frost Square
You knows I'll see you there
But people might stare, because
You're not from Newport
You've probably never been there either
I bet you a fiver you're not from Newport
You've probably never heard of Cryndau
Ringland or Risca you're not from Newport
I can't believe you ripped off my style
But to be honest, it made me smile
Newport - so good they named it twice
We've got a visitor's centre if
You need advice because
You're not from Newport
You've probably never been there either
I bet you a fiver you're not from Newport
You've probably never heard of Pillgwenlly
Or been to Liswerry
You're not from Newport
You've probably never been there either
I bet you a fiver you're not from Newport
You've probably never heard of Cryndau
Ringland or Risca you're not from Newport
Yeah, Newport it's wicked
Home of the Ryder cup, 2010
And we got a Wetherspoon's
It's wicked come and visit soon loves you
You knows it makes sense
