Hitched a hicker up above the border

She'd spent some time in Morocco and Gibraltar



Bb

And stole my wallet with a picture of my misses



Dm

With fond remembrance of everything and kisses



         C       F            C

From the Isle of Dogs to the Egyptian sands



          F             G

Where the Arabs chew on dates



      Am                  Am           Am

And I haven't forgot what it's like to be

With misadventure and her mates

I miss the East End high up on the Khyber

And I'm the target for a dozen rebel snipers

It's not so bad though with some beers in the freezer

And something fancy in the air-conditioned sleeper



From the Isle of Dogs...

....Misadventure and her mates.

I'm moving carpets through the customs at Dover

Thinking my journey was going to be over

Then they discovered a shipment of Moroccan

And said excuse me sir there's something you've forgotten



From the Isle of Dogs...

             Dm                G

Behind prison walls and gates.
