20 Carat Rocker - The Refreshments

20 Carat Rocker (M. Jupp)

He´s got his beard shaved off He´s got his hair cut short

He behaves like people think he ought

And though his Mum and Papa think he´s pleasin´ to the eye

Let me tell you people deep down inside

He´s a twenty-carat rocker from days of old

Yeah he´s a twenty carat rocker and it seems so long since he rolled

Yeah he´s goin´ steady holdin´ down a job

He don't run ´round at nights with any old mob

But come Sunday mornin´ you won't find him in bed

Cause he'll be fixin´ his five hundred in the garden shed

He´s a twenty-carat rocker from days of old

Yeah he´s a twenty carat rocker and it seems so long since he rolled

Solo

And as he grows older and the days go by

He knows he'll soon be called up to the rock-house in the sky

There's a notice tended on them Pearly gates

Sayin´ you can't come here unless you bring your seventy-eights

He´s a twenty-carat rocker from days of old

Yeah he´s a twenty carat rocker and it seems so long since he rolled

Yeah he´s a twenty-carat rocker from days of old

Yeah a twenty carat rocker and it seems so long since he rolled

He´s a twenty carat rocker and it seems so long since he rolled
