[Verse 1]
We were down and out in London
Sharing beds and sharing money
But we were satisfied
With our hot milk and honey
For the young and beautiful
Live a life with no regrets
So let's toast to a short lived love
And drink to all the rest
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
Darling I'm leaving this dreary town
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
When there's greener pastured waiting to be found
[Verse 2]
You looked with eyes that knew me
Mine were the same for you
I'd seen you from the start
And the changes you'd gone through
Whey[?] there's nout that you could hide
I could see straight through your act
And there's nout that can be done
About things said in the past
[Chorus]
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
Darling I'm leaving this dreary town
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
When there's greener pastured waiting to be found
