As I went down to London town early one christmas morning Cross the bridge at Waterloo And headed North to Camden In Camdentown there lives a man Though but he complains Ever since the night began Til the dawnin of the day
Won't you come down, come on down Come on Down to Camdentown Come on down to Camdentown And sing with me in the mornin'
I've sailed across your waters dark seen you from the sky I tunnelled underneath your heart And still you pass me by When I hear your music sound Your Laughter on the rain You'll find me down in Camden Town Where I'll start again
Wind is high, the oceans' deep Sometimes I sit and wonder Rain comes down in London town Road goes on forever When I have no teeth no shame no Banjos for to rattle You'll find down in Camden town Before I sail for battle
