Garden Of England Lyrics - Gerry Rafferty

Way down south in the garden of England 

We got a song to sing and we let it fill the air 

We got it made (yeah) in the garden of England 

Where the sun comes up to see us everyday. 

We feel like strangers but still we call it home 

We got no reason but still we feel alone 

But when the night comes we can roll away the stone 

To each his own, to each his own 

Yeah the simple life. 

We live at home in the garden of England 

They got us on the run, we can feel it in the air 

We got it made in the garden of England 

Where we celebrate the English way of life.

They had an empire, they give it all away 

Their finest hour seems only yesterday 

They still remember when Britannia ruled the waves 

She ruled the waves, she ruled the waves (yeah) 

Yeah the simple life. 

British politician giving a speech 

We conservatives have always maintained the need 

For an experiment 

With a tougher regime 

For depriving young football hooligans 

Of their leisure time 

I can announce today 

That the experiment promised in our election manifest 

Is to begin in Surrey (applause) 

These will be no holiday camps 

We will introduce on a regular basis 

Drill, parades, and inspections 

From 6: 45am 'til lights out at 9: 30pm 

Life will be conducted at a brisk tempo
