Broke Down in London on the M25

The sun don’t ever hardly break through

Ol’ Union Jack gets overdue

I’m sitting on the dry bristly grass

The embankment of lower class

Over and Over and over again

Friend lover, lover friend

Im all up in that discontent

The glamour glory lights and rent

The devil knock in walks pride

Broke down in London on the M25

I was born to tame a dragon

Keep my daddy on the wagon, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Couldn’t mine his way out of east Kentucky

But he believed he was lucky, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Spare the tires and feast on dust

Get high on fumes and grits and lust

I have learned to love the lie

I can drink myself dry

Long as I can stay alive

Broke down in London on the M25

I have not known enough lovers

Watch my hands turn to my mothers, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Shame what they did to her back

But she rolled outta there in a Cadillac, uhuh, ooo uhuh

I was born to tame a dragon

Keep my daddy on the wagon, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Couldn’t mine his way out of east Kentucky

But he believed he was lucky, uhuh, ooo uhuh 

I have not known enough lovers

Watch my hands turn to my mothers, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Shame what they did to her back

But she rolled outta there in a Cadillac, uhuh, ooo uhuh

Sittin’ on the dry bristling grass

I’m on the embankment of lower class

The devil knocks and in walks pride

Broke down in London on the M25
