Lyrics John Martyn

John Martyn

Give Us A Ring

Well now, what’s the food like, have you slept well?

And do the bugs bite other people?

And did the banker give you money?

And I saw on the postcard that you wrote it

On a beach or on your pillow

Or on a book or something stiff.

Give us a ring when you get back

Try to bring me something back

With the customs there

Make sure you don’t get caught

With the things that you bought.

Jeffrey, he bought a cactus for the kitchen

And the rabbit’s been complaining

And we sat out on the lawn

Well now, I have to go to catch the postman

Cos I’m going to the pictures

Lots of love, I bet you’re brown.

Give us a ring when you get back

Try to bring me something back

With the customs there

Make sure you don’t get caught

With the things that you bought.

Give us a ring when you get back

Try to bring me something back

With the customs there

Make sure you don’t get caught

With the things that you bought.

Give us a ring when you get back

Give us a ring when you get back

Give us a ring when you get back

Give us a ring. Don’t get caught.
