The Stamping Ground

[Chorus]

The stamping ground [x2]

All your old gang

Still hang around

Coming in with the same blokes

Going home with the same jokes

If you ever go missing

I know where you'll be found

The stamping ground

[Verse 1]

The big fellow on the front door knows your face

The barman pretends that he's saved you a place

But when your back is turned

They say she's older than she tells

I could stand the main attraction

But not the clientele

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

Everybody knows

Everybody's trouble

Who comes in alone

Who leaves as a couple

When they seen you coming, babe

They act like they're pleased to meet you

Say "It's very nice to know you

But I wouldn't want to be you."

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

You talk like you don't have a brain in your head

You act like you don't have a care in your bed

The lights are on

There's no one home

It scares you to death

You stamp on anyone who stops to take a breath

[Chorus]

The stamping ground [x2]

All your old gang

Still hang around

Going home with the same blokes

Going home with the same jokes

If you ever go missing

I know where you'll be found

The stamping ground [x5]
