Rory And The Hurricanes Lyrics

by Ringo Starr

[Verse 1]
Wake up early heading for the M1
200 miles till we get to London
We were sleeping on the floor
Living on bread and jam

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e127300-ringo_starr~rory_and_the_hurricanes_lyrics.html ]
Because we thought we'd hit the big time
We didn't give a damn

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes

[Verse 2]
Went to dance
On a Friday night
Every London girl we asked
Was so uptight

I saw a pretty little girl
She came from France
She said "Oui"
When I asked her to dance

The world was spinning
Like the glitter ball above
...and already I was falling in love

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
We were Rory and the Hurricanes

[Bridge]
Going down to 'Soho'
Was the place you had to go
It's where everyone was made
Down to the Two Eye Cafe
That's where Tommy Steele would play

[Verse 3]
Next time we went to London Town
We didn't (do) much hanging around
I was with you know who
I played the drums like I always do

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
