Local Boy Chops Wood A Death In The Sixties Lyrics

He got weights on his shoulders
He got chains round his neck
'Fore he get very much older
He be a nervous wreck

He got plenty hangers on
To keep him happy and high
But deep down inside him
You can hear him cry

Local Boy makes good - watch him bleed
Local Boy chops wood - what went wrong
Local Boy who made good wasn't too strong

One riff of his guitar
Gonna change the whole sceneDonovan - Local Boy Chops Wood A Death In The Sixties - http://motolyrics.com/donovan/local-boy-chops-wood-a-death-in-the-sixties-lyrics.html
He's a rebel-romantic
With a Death-wish dream

Local Boy makes good - watch him bleed
Local Boy chops wood - what went wrong
Local Boy who made good wasn't too strong

He keep ice in his young veins
To cool the fires in his head
It'll take more than double brandy
To dry the tears he shed

Rock Star found dead - pictures need
Rock Star found dead - what went wrong
Rock Star found dead - wasn't too strong
