Deacon Blue - Fellow Hoodlums


Artist: Deacon Blue

This is probably the best album from Deacon Blue, a great Scottish band.The quality of the band and the wonderful voices of Ricky Ross and his wife Lorraine McIntosh provide a solid rock sound.

review

 

On the night that

Maxton died
I fell over
The Clyde was full of old tyres
The wind nearly pulled my
Breeches off
And Ann Kelly
She kissed my mouth
Fellow hoodlums and
Engineers
The Union's south
And we're all here
I'm going up Buchanan Street
With a box of fireworks
And two bottles of Tizer
On the last train from St. Enochs
I saw the graveyard
It looked like our old street 
People were cheering
All the way from Hampden
With macaroons and
And scarves and rattles
Fellow hoodlums and
Engineers
The Union's south
And we're all here
I'm going up Buchanan Street
With a box of fireworks
And two bottles of Tizer
Billy's a butcher now
Always has been
And he picks his teeth
With old rusty meat hooks
And he sends his beef with the bike boys
Monday to Saturday
Partick to Cowcaddens
Fellow hoodlums and
Engineers
The Union's south
And we're all here
I'm going up Buchanan Street
With a box of fireworks
And two bottles of Tizer
I'm going up Buchanan Street
With a box of fireworks
And two bottles of Tizer
