The Man Who Would Never Leave Grimsby

Dave Lambert

I was told about a man
Who would never leave Grimsby
And that may sound strange
But his heart was in that town
With his friends and his family

And to make him leave
Would be pain indeed
Now he could have toured the world
He was highly respected

But to make him go
Would be ripping out his heart
And leaving him restless
So to see him play
Go the Grimsby way

'Cos he has a little love
But he gives a lot of love
It doesn't matter where he is
If you've got a little love

And you give a lot of love
It doesn't matter where you are
It's up to you
You could be in Grimsby too

Got a letter from a boy
From a village in Kenya
He was such a fan
So smitten by the band
They called him the Strawbs Boy

And that made him proud
He would play us loud
In the letter Lucky wrote
That he'd been to Nairobi
Which I found quite sad

Because he said he looked around
But he couldn't see me
With a faith like that
How I wish he had

Lucky had a little love
And he gave a lot of love
Didn't matter where he was

If you ever meet the man
Who would never leave Grimsby
Try to make him see
That the home is in the heart
And you carry it with you
You may never leave
And your spirit's free
