No More 03:24
No more my lord I ain’t never turning back no more Why test my faith? Why do you tempt me to fall from grace? I think I’ll live my life away from the glare of your white light No more my lord I ain’t never turning back no more

P.I.G. 02:40
Knock knock who’s there at the door its getting late I’m having nobody over Knock knock who’s there at the door by the hair of my chin Little piggy its me at the door the big bad wolf I’m coming over for dinner Little piggy its me at the door won’t you please let me in Or I’ll huff and I’ll puff until I blow your house down right down to the floorboards I’ll huff and I’ll puff until I blow your house down You can’t build a house out of sticks and straw don’t believe me just ask your two sisters You can’t build a house out of sticks and straw so come on let me in I didn’t make this house out of sticks and straw I built it myself out of bricks and mortar I didn’t make this house out of sticks and straw not by the hair of my chin So you’ll huff and you’ll puff until you blow yourself out right down to the to your last breath You’ll huff and you’ll puff until you blow yourself out I’ll catch my breath and climb up your wall cross your roof and come down your chimney I’ll catch my breath and climb up your wall by the hair of your chin If I catch you climbing up my wall I’ll get some tinder and I’ll tend the fire If I catch you climbing up my wall you can let yourself in You’ll huff and you’ll puff until you throw yourself right down to your death You’ll huff and you’ll puff until you throw yourself down I’ll huff and I’ll puff until I blow myself out right down to the cinders I’ll huff and I’ll puff until I blow myself out The three little pigs in song form!

Wanted 04:15
The hangman said I want to hang him today wanna make him sweat a bucket wanna make him pay For a fistful of dollars bring him before the law bring him in alive for a few dollars more I found the wanted man drinking at the bar he said I don’t know who the hell you think you are I’m gonna take you outside gonna make you dance gonna bleed you good you don’t stand a chance I can hear the howling in the wind I can see the sweat start to burn his skin I can feel his fingers start to itch inside he is champing at the bit I know he can’t take it anymore any second now and he’s gonna draw when I can see it in his eyes I pull the trigger and watch him die I just took his lousy messed up life I just made a widow of his wife I made an orphan of his boy turned his daddy into a lifeless toy

Its 2021 and we’re all out packing guns and all I know is johnny still ain’t home Its 2022 and there’s more red than white and blue and all I know is johnny still ain’t home Its 2023 and no one seems to be free and all I know is johnny still ain’t home Its 2024 when they declare all out war and all I know is johnny still ain’t home Its 2025 and no one got out alive and all I know is johnny still ain’t home
5.
Outside its blowing a gale but can you feel it putting wind in your sail so take me by the hand as cold as a graveyard in December in a far away land If we get caught on the rocks I’d grab your hat your earrings I’m very sari but please understand that this here boat ain’t got no anchor so baby on my command abandon ship When we crawl out from the shipwreck we’ll mark the spot by leaving an ex right here in the sand where we will bury the treasure along with all of our plans

The train that I ride is coming into call right here at Gloucester terminal I thought I’d seen it all before but never did I see a more wretched hive of scum and villainy The conductor’s calling all aboard that black diamond express to hell He said step right on up ladies and gentlemen all you local frauds and charlatans There’s no need for tickets this is your ride your salvation has arrived We’re departing all aboard that black diamond express to hell I’m sorry but did you think that was your stop well you ain’t ever getting off Didn’t you hear me call we’re hellbound and we’re going deeper underground I guess we’re staying all aboard that black diamond express to hell
7.
See the land of Palestine let me people go The adopted home of the Ishmaelites let my people go Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go Racism institutionalised let my people go No one free to criticise let my people go Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go Look into old Pharaoh’s eyes let my people go Demand and end to apartheid let my people go Go down Moses to the promised land go tell old Pharaoh let my people go

Angie 04:04
A little loving’s what I need Cross my eyes and dot my Ts A cup of continental coffee A little loving’s what I need A little Angie Save me your sympathy A little is what I need So c’mon baby set me free ‘cos I’ve been waiting so god damn long
9.
In my time of Dying don’t want nobody to moan all I want you to do is bring my body home Well well well so I can die easy Jesus gonna make up my dying bed Meet me Jesus in the middle of the air if these wings should fail me meet me with another pair Well well well so I can die easy Jesus gonna make up my dying bed I’m going on down to the river stick my sword in the sand shout my troubles over I made it to the promised land Well well well so I can die easy Jesus gonna make up my dying bed In my time of dying don’t want nobody to cry all I want for you to do is bury me when I die Well well well so I can die easy Jesus gonna make up my dying bed

Summertime 02:33
Summertime and the living is easy fishes jumping and the cotton is high Your daddy's rich and your mama’s good looking so hush little baby don't you cry One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing spread your wings and take to the sky But until that morning there's nothing can harm you with Mummy and Daddy standing by
11.
Carve my name in stone save this wandering soul carry me home calling on the healing crow Those are the words to your song since your bird has flown now I sing them alone calling on the healing crow You felt it in your bones soon you’d have to go journey on beyond calling on the healing crow
12.
What shall we do with the drunken sailor early in the morning Put him in the guardroom until he gets sober early in the morning Put him in the long boat and make him bail her early in the morning Put him in bed with the captain’s daughter early in the morning

about

Essentially a live skiffle session, the bulk of this LP was cut at The Forge located at the Heart of England in late 2021 with overdubs added throughout 2022-3 adding a rich array of flavours to the rough-and-ready rhythm and call-and-response singing. The songs swing from gospel influenced blues to gypsy-jazz and folk, capturing the diversity and energy of the band’s live shows. We hope you enjoy...
