"All Comers" lyrics
"All Comers"
There'll be one or two in every crowd
One or two lads being loud
Having themselves a weekend
Come out the beer tent with their mates
Look over where we stand and wait
Going to want to be showing off to the girlfriend
Over to the booth they'll come and stand
One's going to want to put up his hand
But he's maybe had a drink
Never seen a real ring
He can take on his pals, keep on his shirt
We don't want locals getting hurt
Our people on the show are all the real thing
We were here back then since way back when
In the long hot summers
Here back then and we're back again
And taking on all comers
All comers
You keep your hands up
And your expectations slim
And you never underestimate
The man who's climbing in
Well it's a hard way to earn a pound alright
You'll maybe get three or four fights a night
Maybe more on a weekend
But we want to see them back in here
When we come round again next year
May it never change, just like old friends
We were here back then since way back when
In the long hot summers
Here back then and we're back again
And taking on all comers
All comers

In the darkness somewhere
I don't wanna go back down
To the old world
Where you hurt me all the time
But...
John Hiatt - "Adios To California" Smokey room and a thin blue light
Her arms were pale as white
Trying to outlast the night
Howlin' at the moon
Living in the canyon then
Hangdown Hanna and Whiskey Jim
Dirty jeans and mudslide hymns...
Ryan Adams - "Blizzard In The Room" Who am I today those walls come tumbling down?
Who am I to speak with nothing to say?
Scratched up like a rainbow in a puddle of rain
The color of our dreams turn into grey
And did you ever fall in...
Kelly Jones - "Monsters In The House" I know I drain you
With my troubles every day
I don't mean to
When the sun shines let's make hay
But in my mind
It don't work like that for me
I wished that it would
Be easier for you and me
Some...
