Bell Boy

1 Contributor Bell Boy Lyrics The beach is a place where a man can feel He's the only soul in the world that's real But I see a face coming through the haze I remember him from those crazy days Hazy days, crazy days Aren't you the guy who used to set the paces Riding up in front of a hundred Faces I don't suppose you would remember me But I used to follow you back in '63 I've got a good job and I'm newly born You should see me dressed up in my uniform I work in hotel all gilt and flash Remember the gaff where the doors were smashed? Bell Boy! I got to get running now Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down Bell Boy! Carry this baggage out Bell Boy! Always running at someone's bleeding heel You know how I feel Always running at someone's heelSome nights I still sleep on the beach Remember when stars were in reach Then I wander in early to work Spend my day licking boots for my perks The beach is a place where a man can feel He's the only soul in the world that's real But I see a face coming through the haze I remember him from those crazy days Crazy days, crazy days Crazy days, crazy days Aren't you the guy who used to set the paces Riding up in front of a hundred Faces I don't suppose you would remember me But I used to follow you back in '63 People often change But when I look in your eyes You could learn a lot From a life like mine The secret to me It ain't flown like a flag I carry it behind this bleeding little badge What saysBell Boy! I got to get running now Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down Bell Boy! Carry the bloody baggage out Bell Boy! Always running at someone's heel You know how I feel Always running at someone's heel
