Show Of Hands Longdog
Redbrick cottage on the edge of the woods
Cars and cages all around
At the back in a lean-to-shed
That's where my longdog's found
Got a four wheel pickup and a shotgun
Never brought a meal in my life
I go shopping with a land a knife
I got a longdog I am a poacher
Well out working the fields one night
On another man's land
The boys in blue they watched me leave
A sack full of rabbits in hand
Early next day they followed me down
To a shop in the middle of the square
I sold brace of pheasants a rabbit and a hare
I got a longdog I am a poacher
Only one thing a poor man needs
A lean and a longdog built for speed
But I was in the woods and the town jps
Country court couldn't agree
We got the longdog we got a poacher
Well I've done time now I'm on the street
Smarter in the head and lighter on my feet
When those boys are out on the beat
I'm gonna catch what l'm gonna eat
With my longdog I am a poacher
You know I got three months and a big fat fine
But I'm not naming names
Half this town's had a real good time
Living on longdog's game
Redbrick cottage on the edge of the woods
Cars and cages all around
Waiting all day 'til the night comes around
Are the longdog and the poacher
