Gordie Can't Swim (Single)

by The Junipers

/
1.
Gordon Richard Storm wished he wasn't born and his family do His dreams had been and gone straight away Told by his father on a regular basis he was a mistake A one off night affair they say The feelings that were in the air Were there to see Ahhhh Ahhhh Left round his Aunties in the afternoons but he didn't care The only fun he had in the day No one in his family took a second look at his sorry face So he left to roam around the place Oooh Gordie told us when he was a boy That his father knocked him into next week Leaving for the streets of London And nobody could tеll his Dad Dreaming of the woman he was always told was coming homе But never heard a peep He needs someone to carry the lantern To show him that they understand And teach him about the World around him The first time it be underhand Oooooh Gordie left a letter Cos he don't know any better on the doorstep concrete Left next to a missing photo Of Gordie on a carton of milk Aaah Ohhh This was Gordies final farewell A tortured soul lays to rest Aaah Ohhh Aaah Ohhh

about

Our 2nd single released on San Remo in 2008. Pronounced "Gor-Dee" and not "Jor-Dee". A different mix from the album version and remastered. Includes original b-sides, press release and the original home demo as a bonus track. We don't own the rights to anything we released on San Remo so couldn't sell this stuff ourselves until now. We have an agreement in place so we can now sell our debut album "Cut Your Key" and the singles and EP released at that time : )
