Lyrics:

(wilko johnson)

I jumped up this morning
Right out of a dream
The front door was wide open
And the rain was blowing in from the street

The whole house felt empty
And I was alone
I could hear somebody ringing
But I couldn't find my way to the phone

I pondered and puzzled
Why all this should be
I got a sneakin suspicion
Someone's putting something over on me

Sneakin' suspicion
Creeping up inside of me
Sneakin' suspicion
Just won't let me be

- guitar break -

I looked for my baby
All over in town
I've never seen so many women
Since the day they closed the factory down

Midnight on the river
In the light of the flames
I'm staring at the water
And I'm trying to fit a number to a name

Sneakin' suspicion
Creeping up inside of me
Sneakin' suspicion
Just won't let me be
