golfs
Lyrics
Verse 1
I fell in love with the streets too young
Hearing Kanos p’s and q’s, I was sprung
South all over, I moved on through
Camberwell, Peckham, Sydenham too
Peng days, then Thornton Heath
Same hard code, same bare concrete
Am a gypsy, you see, I roam and run
But I kept my head down and I got it done
At sixteen, I was wheelin’ school
No license, no tax, still I broke that rule
No MOT, but I knew that lane
One hand on the wheel, one hand on the chain
Pre-Chorus
I wanted grease on my hands
Wanted bolts and spanners
But the dream slipped away
Still I learned the patterns
Now if I need, I know
I can fix what’s broken
Got the knowledge in me
Even when I ain’t spoken
Chorus
I fell in love, I fell in love
I fell in love with the roads
I fell in love, I fell in love
With the life that I chose
(I fell in love)
With the roads I know
(I fell in love)
Watch the young one grow
Verse 2
Then I climbed up high on scaffold that
Touch the sky while the cold wind blows
Hard hat on, but my mind stayed sharp
Stack that bread, I played my part
Get my money, buy what I want
No fronting, I don’t stunt for font
Smoke weed like it’s legal, calm and slow
Let the stress leave me when I exhale the smoke
I love my German cars, that’s facts
Golfs and Merks, I’m on that track
Beamers next, with the seats laid back
Classic lines and the paint too black
Pre-Chorus
I wanted grease on my hands
Wanted bolts and spanners
But the dream slipped away
Still I learned the patterns
Now if I need, I know
I can fix what’s broken
Got the knowledge in me
Even when I ain’t spoken
Chorus
I fell in love, I fell in love
I fell in love with the roads
I fell in love, I fell in love
With the life that I chose
(I fell in love)
With the roads I know
(I fell in love)
Watch the young one grow
Bridge
From the school run to the scaffold height
From the back roads to the showroom lights
Same boy, same pride, same hunger still
Took my knocks, but I kept my will
No license then, but I had that drive
No easy path, I still stayed alive
Now I look back and I just smile
I was built for the miles
Chorus
I fell in love, I fell in love
I fell in love with the roads
I fell in love, I fell in love
With the life that I chose
(I fell in love)
With the roads I know
(I fell in love)
Watch the young one grow
