作词 : DArby This isn't living now A thing my father said to me And get a haircut, boy If you want a chance in respectable society Why did you stop writing? I knew you had some trouble, son But you should know by now That my number doesn't change Because a dirty deed is done. All I need from you And that's all Regardless of whatever you do And that is what you understand That I'll never turn my back on you. How are your wife and child? I'm sure your little girl has grown And give them a kiss and smile That's what my daddy said In a letter very long What kind of man would I be? If I left you in despair (and then he wrote) And I miss your mother, son Cause if she were still alive She'd tell you too You should cut your hair. All I need from you And that's all Regardless of whatever you do And that is what you realise That I'll never turn my back on you. Whatever you do just try to get through to me Remember the time we got drunk on wine by the sea And I laughed when you tried to stagger home by yourself You were stubborn then and you are still stubborn now. All I need from you And that's all Regardless of whatever you do And that is what you understand That I'll never turn my back on you.
