Jack Bruce - Never Tell Your Mother She's Out of Tune lyrics

When I hear that big black whistle they blow
I feel inside that it's time
For me to be going
Fortunately baby I'd already gone before

When they say I'm worth ten pieces of coal
And you shouting hey what about when
You are an old man
Fortunately baby I'd already locked the door

They say there are men who are
Blue like me in the stars
Beards for the weird and
Bars for bizarre guitarmen
Fortunately baby I'd already joined the force
Good time train well it does
Not need any track
It wins the race to the place
Where I'm gonna pack up
Fortunately baby I'd already grabbed the sky

All the days that the road has spent on me
Judges shout you've got to slave
To be a freeman
Fortunately baby I am never coming back

Good time train, good time train
