  • Nick Burbridge)
  • Dirty Davey's down the front and he's met the coppers there
  • They'll be taking you in cos they hate your skin
  • And he's dragged away by the hair
  • CHORUS
  • It's a kick in the head and a prison bed
  • And you tell me it's the law
  • Well Davey's out on two weeks bail and he's down the town to score
  • When it all falls in and he's pinned by the chin
  • And they'vve rusted every floor
  • CHORUS
  • Davey's down the old grey squat
  • And he's lying with his lass
  • When there's a brick through the pane
  • ANd he's out on the lane
  • With the bailiffs and the glass
  • CHORUS
  • The court comes up on Monday morning and Davey's in the dock
  • He can't stop his tears when he gets two years
  • And you can't turn back the clock
  • CHORUS
  • Well Davey's had it up to here
  • Banging his head on the wall
  • So he tied his pants to the prison bars
  • And he's hung till he's clear of it all
  • CHORUS
  • There's a law for the rich and a lwa for the poor
  • And a law for Dirty Davey
  • His body's gone but his soul lives on
  • Here's to you Dirty Davey
  • Corrupt, corrupt from the bottom to the top
  • And you tell me it's the law
