Down By The Jetty Blues

I'm going down by the jetty

Tonight the tide is high

It's tankers in the channel laying

Flames up in the sky

I'm going down by the jetty

(Be)fore I leave this world behind

'Cause that oil slick on the water

Is band to ease my worried mind

My face is slowly burning

My eyes are turning red

In the shadow of the refinery, baby

Tonight I'll make my bed

I'm going down by the jetty

(Be)fore I leave this world behind

(Fore I leave this world behind)

'Cause that oil slick on the water

Is band to ease my worried mind

The air is filled with poison

The sea is thick with grease

Somewhere in this hell on earth

I'll surely get some peace

With one foot on the water

And one foot on the pier

I'm ready for the next world

To get me outta here

I'm going down by the jetty

(Be)fore I leave this world behind

'Cause that oil slick on the water

Is bound to ease my worried mind

Bye bye, cruel world...
