Gino, Gino

Back in '68 in a sweaty plough
Oh, Gino
Before Jimmy's Machine and the rocksteady row

Oh, Gino
On a night when the flowers didn't suit my shoes
After a week of flunking and bunking school
The lowest heads in the crowd that night
Were just punching steps and keeping out of fights
Academic inspiration, you gave me love
You were my cooler lover, the 501

But now just look at me as I'm looking down on you
No, I'm not being flash, it's what I'm built to do
That man took the stage, it was swinging high
Oh, Gino
This man was my Bob, was my Dex, he's my Hyde
Oh, Gino
Oh, the crowd, they all hailed you and chanted your name
But I never knew like we knew me and you were the same
And now you're all over, the song is so tame
But you fit me and burnt me, I remember your name

Academic inspiration, you gave me love
You were my cooler lover, the 501
But now just look at me as I'm looking down on you
No, I'm not being flash, it's what I'm built to do

Oh, Gino
Oh, Gino
Oh, Gino
