If you're looking to find A place to hide Where the climate is cool And the river is wide
Down in the Nookie Wood Down in the Nookie Wood
In the kitchens of the Mardi Gras The cooks of pestilence meet Brewing up their bitter fruit - ah ha
Once on a summer's day Twice on a summer's night You wanna go out and play And that's alright
Down in the Nookie Wood Down in the Nookie Wood Down in the Nookie Wood - ah ha
And all the creatures Watching from the sides We're living memories for you tonight And we could send them Yes we could send them Back to their distant lands
When I got to thinking That it's normal time You've got me thinking that again When someone takes you On that journey down To where you're serving time again
Doing hard time in the Nookie Wood Doing hard time again Doing hard time in the Nookie Wood Doing hard time again
