Think I’ll pour some homemade beer
To give myself a little cheer
It’s so cold and wintry here –
The sunshine’s gone to Oxfordshire
Sunday looks a promising day –
Then the sunshine’s here to stay
Waterloo to Brentford and back
To an horizon of writhing track
Rain on blue trains laying dust...
All through the years every now and then
I’ve made my lists and packed my bag
To leave old Brentford town again...
