Island People
Sean O’Hagan
[Verse 1]
Don't come waltzing back to my door
I cannot give any more
You country cousins squabble and fight
And gamble your way through the night
[Verse 2]
The money's all gone, it's time to move on
Leave all the debts, those letters and threats, oh
The island awaits the quarryman's whim
Who dillies and dallies within
[Verse 3]
The favoured fearful take some offence
And speak of those summers well spent
If the rumours are true, the daytrips are through
Leave with the rest, who could not care less, oh
[Refrain]
The rumours are true, the daytrips are through
Leave with the rest, who could not care less, oh
