Down In The Flood (Clark, Miller, Priest)
I know we've got to find a way,
Can't go on like this no more,
Watchin' time slip away,
Our eternal mind runs out the door,
But I know something's coming,
It flows through my blood,
Can't keep on running,
Down in the flood
Yeah, I know something's coming,
It flows through my blood,
Can't keep on running,
Down in the flood.
(2/4)
I fear the gathering dark,
There's trouble raging over hill,
The rain pours, oh, the rain,
Feels like hell about to spill,
Well I know something's coming,
It flows through my blood,
Can't keep on running,
Down in the flood
Yeah I know something's coming,
I can feel it in the mud,
Water keeps on rising,
Down in the flood
Down in the flood
(3/4)
So let's hold on together,
To the things we have left,
It's all that we can cling to,
Whilst we're cast adrift,
And unless we stand together,
Like we always could,
Then we may as well be forever,
Down in the flood
And unless we stand together,
Like the past has proved we could,
Then all this forever,
Down in the flood
It always takes the bad times,
To bring out the good,
To build our lives together,
Down in the flood
(4/4) [backing vocals for sheet (3/4)]
Keep on running
Yeah, keep on running
Oh something's coming
Oh, through my blood
Yeah, keep on running
Down in the flood
It always takes the bad times
Yeah, keep on running
It always takes the bad times
Yeah, keep on

Frisky Girls ( Trad. C. 1750 - 1820. Arr. Clark, Miller, Priest )
I lay a groat down to a schilling,
I lay guinea to a crown,
There's not a girl in Covent Garden,
To put my courage down
We'll be there, we'll be there, if you see a girl who's pretty,
Stick a flower in her hair,
We'll be there, we'll be there, if you see a girl who's frisky,
Stick a flower in her hair
The pips they come from Old St. Giles',
The pickpockets from Brick Lane,
The girls they come in all shapes and sizes,
And they're all fit for the game
(2/3)
We'll be there, we'll there, if you see a girl who's pretty,
Stick a flower in her hair,
We'll be there at the fayre , If you see a girl who`s frisky,
Stick a ribbon in her hair
(guitar solo)
We'll be there we'll be there if you see a girl who's pretty,
Stick a flower in her hair,
We'll be there at the fayre if you see a girl who's frisky,
Stick a ferret in her hair
I lay a groat down to a schilling,
I lay guinea to a crown,
There's not a girl in Covent Garden,
To put my courage down
(3/3)
We'll be there, we'll be there, if you see a girl who's pretty,
Stick a flower in her hair,
We'll be there at the fayre, if you see a girl who's frisky,
Stick a ferret in her hair,
We'll be there

Forgive Me (Clark, Miller, Priest )
There was something in the way that made me stumble,
Then you came today and cleared my path,
There was something in the way I didn't notice,
Picked me up and took me back
I promised you no more promises,
That I could not hold true,
So do you believe me babe,
Now I'm on my knees in front of you
There was something I could say to make you realise,
I was always there for you, by your side,
There was something you could say to ease my poisoned mind,
I forgive you,
Won't you forgive me
(2/2)
I promised you no more promises,
That I could not hold true,
So do you believe me babe,
Now I'm on my knees in front of you
(In front of you)
Won't you forgive me,
Won't you forgive me,
Won't you forgive me
