REQ Info: "I Get Knocked Down, I Get Up"
Jon Kemp
Ain't Nothing Gonna Keep Me Down!
It's my new mantra. Now if I only knew who sings the song I could buy
it!
What happened to top fifty song lists. Where are they?

Chumbawamba -- Tubthumping
From the Album -- Unknown
We'll be singing
When we're winning
We'll be singing
I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
Pissing the night away
Pissing the night away
He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the better times
"Oh Danny Boy
Danny Boy
Danny Boy..."
I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
Pissing the night away
Pissing the night away
He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the better times
"Don't cry for me
Next door neighbour..."
I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down
We'll be singing
When we're winning
We'll be singing

Personally, my favorite part is "pissing the night away," but then I'm
weird...

Peter:
You are not wierd alone. But I just thought "pissing the night away"
was one of those misunderstood lyric things. I've been searching all night
for the name of the song or some reference to the song and have passed
Chumbawamba -- Tubthumping
From the Album -- Unknown
over fifty times. I've checked every song I thought could be it and every
group that I thought came close! Who knew.
But I was certain NO RADIO STATION would play "pissing the night
away." Just goes to show you!
Thanks a great deal!

"pissing" is a British term which basically means drinking. Usually lager
(beer) Getting pissed is not getting mad...it's getting drunk.

My heart tonight is far away
Across the rolling sea.
In the sweet Milton Malbay,
it's there I'd love to be.
So long ago and far away
And nothing can compare.
My heart's tonight in Ireland,
In the sweet county Clare.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Although you hear what I say, listen to my silence-
and then you will understand me.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I was in my own world with you, and you didn't even notice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What goes around comes around.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With you I never went astray,
without you I will always run away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If a door slams shut, it means that God is
pointing to an open door further on down.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Tubthumping is similar to soapbox preaching, where someone gets up on a box a
addresses a crowd about what's on his mind.
The album is called "Tubthumper", and it's a good album. If you don't have the
lyrics yet, and still want them, e-mail me>
