Mevagissey Lyrics

The lights of Mevagissey is a sight that I long to see,
To walk the old stone harbour, smell the salt air, and the sea
Those fishin' boats, all safely moored, seagulls soar above,
In that quaint old Cornish village - Mevagissey, you're my love!

Chorus: Some folks like big cities, with their hustle and bright lights,
The nightclubs and the restaurants, they say are wondrous sights,
Although I'm not a Cornish lad, though I've lived down in the West,
You can keep your bright-light cities; Mevagissey, you're the best!

The motorways, and the factories, their chimneys reach the sky,
People rushing everywhere, never knowing why;
So I'm glad I've had this chance in life, to take the time and see,The Wurzels - Mevagissey - http://motolyrics.com/the-wurzels/mevagissey-lyrics.html
You can keep your bright-light cities, Mevagissey is just for me!

So if you yearn to leave it all, and I'm sure that you might someday,
Remember what I tell you, as you pass along your way,
And you'll be glad that you're alive, these words I say come true,
Forget those bright-light cities, Mevagissey is just for you.

Some folks like big cities, with their hustle and bright lights,
The nightclubs and the restaurants, they say are wondrous sights,
Although I'm not a Cornish lad, though I've lived down in the West,
Forget those bright-light cities, Mevagissey, you're the best!
Yes, you can keep your bright-light cities, Mevagissey, you're the best.
