The Hollies - Delaware Taggett And The Outlaw Boys lyrics

Young girls and porches are filling out Tempers and torches are burning Brown is the colour of town Living in thunder Hair on my top lip now I'm a man I so often hear and feel it Nice paying the price for being kept under [Chorus:] Mama says don't hang around that front gate too long Boys like you who stay too late are surely gonna go so wrong But Mama there's safety in numbers It's the first time I've ever felt strong Delaware Taggett and the Outlaw Boys Adding a laugh to the Broadway noise Slipping your mind where your mind don't wanna go Off-duty porters lay sleeping wives On-duty daughters are finding Why just touching a boy gives a thrill like a shiver Whispers and shadows are moving fast No prizes given to people Last drowned in the past down on the river [Chorus]
