The Longest Johns
Tilbury Town
[Verse 1 (Andy, Robbie, All)]
Well, at first I saw a T.E.U
Rollin' up and rollin' down
I wondered where the hell they stored the crew
To go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Verse 2]
Well, I used to be a rigger, and I worked like hell
Rollin' up and rollin' down
But now I'm workin' for the O.C.L
To go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Verse 3]
Well, cargo, it comes in T.E.U.s
Rollin' up and rollin' down
A twenty-foot box, boys, filled with booze
To go rollin' down the river (Hеy!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down thе river
[Verse 4]
There's a Tilbury girl called Kettle Jane
Rollin' up and rollin' down
Hot on the boil, then off again
To go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Verse 5]
Well, she's got a mate called Teapot Anne
Rollin' up and rollin' down
She gets well-brewed, she likes a man
To go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Verse 6]
Well, Tilbury girls go 'round in pairs
Rollin' up and rollin' down
You won't catch them, boys, unawares
And go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Verse 7]
Well, we're the boys to kick her through
Rollin' up and rollin' down
To hell with the channel and the T.E.U
Let's go down the river (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river
[Chorus]
Rollin' up and rollin' down
We'll all get drunk in Tilbury town
Twenty-four hours to turn around
And go rollin' down the river (Hey!)
