The Nigel Purcell Trio - Girls, cars and self respect (Remastered) Lyrics

I'm strolling along sad
Thinking of what I had
The pier it is cold and wet
Things have gone wrong and yet
What we could have been
We nearly made the scene
Girls and cars and self respect
I know it's not much
But now it's wrecked
Why did it all go so wrong

To think it's all about some hit song
That only caused us pain
I cast my eyes on this God forsaken place
Am I insane
I feel the tide is washing me away
I've got to get back no
To another empty show
I feel the tide is washing me away
The pier it is cold and wet
Things have gone wrong and yet
Girls and cars and self respect
I know it it's not much
But now it's wrecked
Why did it all go so wrong

To think it is all about some hit song
That only caused us pain
I cast my eyes on this God forsaken place
Am I insane
I feel the tide is washing me away
I'm strolling along sad
I deserve it now I'm glad
I feel the tide has washed me away
The end of the night is here
The last one must be near
