Touchwood Jones

A more unlucky man you would never meet
People avoided him when they saw him on the street
The God’s conspired against him, don’t know why
They were hungry, wanted someone to fry

As a baby boy he must have broke’ every bone
His Mum and Dad would leave him every time they moved home
He never questioned why the world would pick on him
He just stood there and took it on the chin.

And you can still hear the moans, still hear the moans,
still hear the moans of touchwood Jones
you can still hear the moans, still hear the moans,
still hear the moans of touchwood Jones

Sitting in a bar when he was hit by a truck
Walking past a wrecking ball when he forgot to duck
Diving off the board when they were draining the pool
Picking up a horse-shoe, he was kicked by a mule

And you can still hear the moans, still hear the moans,
still hear the moans of touchwood Jones
you can still hear the moans, still hear the moans,
still hear the moans of touchwood Jones


Karma’s gonna save you Jonesy
Karma’s gonna save you

And then he met a woman with looks that could kill
She did things to him to shock and tease and thrill
She gave him loving through the night and through the day
You could still hear him moaning on the day he passed away


And you can still hear the moans, still hear the moans,
