Dreary Town - Nadine Shah

We were down and out in London

Sharing beds and sharing money

But we were satisfied

With our hot milk and honey

For the young and beautiful

Live a life with no regrets

So let’s toast to a short lived love

And drink to all the rest

I’m not gonna follow you to the ground

Darling I’m leaving this dreary town

I’m not gonna follow you to the ground

When there’s greener pastured waiting to be found

You looked with eyes that knew me

Mine were the same for you

I’d seen you from the start

And the changes you’d gone through

When there’s nout that you could hide

I could see straight through your act

And there’s nout that can be done

About things said in the past

I’m not gonna follow you to the ground

Darling I’m leaving this dreary town

I’m not gonna follow you to the ground

When there’s greener pastured waiting to be found
