I took out all the seats & away I went
it is a right old banger & the chassis´ bent
it is got a great big peace sign across the back
and most of the windos have been pain´ted black
the windshield´s cracked, it is a bugger to drive
it starts making smoke over forty-five
it is a phsychedelic nightmare with a million leaks
it is home-sweet-home to ssome sweet arse freaks
slow down itinerant child, the road is full of danger
slow down itinerant child, theres no more ‘welcome, stanger´
soon I was rumbling through the mornign fog
with my long haired children & my one eyed dog
with the trucks & the buses & the trailer-vans
my long throw horns playing Steely Dan
we straggled out for miles along the Beggar´s Hill
when the word came donw that we would lost Old Bill
you can bet your boots i am coming when the times are hard
that is why they keep my dossier at Scotland Yard
slow down itinernat child, you are still accelerating
slow down itinerant child, the boys in blue were waiting
itinernat child don´t do what your doing
itinerant child you would better slow down
we drove into Happy Valley seeking peace & love
with a lone helicopter hanging up above
we didn´t realise tilll we hit the feild
there were four hundred cozzers holding riot sheilds
they terrorized our babies & they broke our heads
it is a stone f*cking miracle theres no-one dead
they turned my ramshackle home into a burning wreck
my one-eyed dog got a broken neck
slow down itinerant child, the road is full of danger
slow down itinerant child, theres no more ‘welcome, stanger´
slow down itinernat child, you are still accelerating
slow down itinerant child, the boys in blue were waiting
