Nookie Wood

If you're looking to find

A place to hide

Where the climate is cool

And the river is wide

Down in the Nookie Wood

Down in the Nookie Wood

In the kitchens of the Mardi Gras

The cooks of pestilence meet

Brewing up their bitter fruit - ah ha

Once on a summer's day

Twice on a summer's night

You wanna go out and play

And that's alright

Down in the Nookie Wood

Down in the Nookie Wood

Down in the Nookie Wood - ah ha

And all the creatures

Watching from the sides

We're living memories for you tonight

And we could send them

Yes we could send them

Back to their distant lands

When I got to thinking

That it's normal time

You've got me thinking that again

When someone takes you

On that journey down

To where you're serving time again

Doing hard time in the Nookie Wood

Doing hard time again

Doing hard time in the Nookie Wood

Doing hard time again
