PETE TOWNSHEND lyrics : "Put The Money Down"

I got lost in the back streets trying to get here tonight
Police were asking questions
Took me to the wrong place twice

They even lost my passport and I forgot my name and town
But now I'm here by the water
Put the money down


Before I walk on the water
Put the money down down down


There are people killing chickens
Hero's getting pushed around round round

Don't know if I can trust you
You try to put me down


Before I walk on the water
Put the money down down down
Put the money down

Put it in a tin cup

Take a glass of this light brown ale

And a purple pill
If the police don't get you to
Sure as hell the purple pill will

Oh Mummy Mummy
Please may I go downtown
He's gonna walk on the water

Put the money down
Just put your money down


Before I walk on the water
Put the money down down down
Put the money down

There are people killing chickens
And Hero's getting pushed around round round
Don't know if I can trust you

You try to shoot me down
Before I walk on the water
Put the money down down down

Put the money down

'Twas a beautiful day in Columbus when the fences fell.

But the five loaves and the fishes ain't gonna be much help
Cos I've got a hungry juggler here who's got to keep ahead
Before he walks over the water he's gotta have his bread

Put it in a tin cup
I got lost in the back streets trying to get here tonight
I had to ask for directions

Got me to the wrong place twice
I even lost my passport and I forgot my name and town
But now I'm here by the water

Put the money down

Before I walk on the water

Put the money down down
Put the money down
There are people killing chickens

And Hero's getting pushed around round round
Don't know if I can trust you
You try to shoot me down

Before I walk on the water
Put the money down down down
Put the money down
