Under One Roof - The Rubettes[00:00:00]

Written by：John George Richardson/Alan James Williams[00:00:05]

Billy ran away from his home to find away to live in peace[00:00:07]

His mama didn't give a damn about him[00:00:14]

His papa's on the run from the police[00:00:16]

When billy hit the city the city hit billy[00:00:21]

No one needs you when your down and out[00:00:24]

Then one kind guy with the pinated eyes[00:00:27]

Piaked him up bailed him out[00:00:30]

Under one roof sharing one room[00:00:35]

Nobody cared about them under one roof[00:00:42]

Sharing one room daring the world to part them[00:00:51]

Billy found it hard to find a job to make some pay[00:01:01]

AII day looking round[00:01:08]

Getting me down I was being turned away[00:01:09]

And Johnny was the only one who didn't talk down[00:01:14]

To Billy from up above and for the first time in his life[00:01:17]

Billy found out what it felt like to be loved[00:01:23]

Under one roof sharing one love[00:01:29]

Nobody cared about them under one roof[00:01:35]

Sharing one love daring the world to part them[00:01:45]

Somehow billy's papa found out all about[00:01:55]

The style of billy's life[00:01:58]

And it didn't take long before[00:02:01]

He came round and he had a knife[00:02:03]

He cut up Johnny stole all his money[00:02:08]

He called him all the names that he could find[00:02:11]

Said he'd wait for billy at the factory tomorrow[00:02:14]

And show him what they do to Billy's kind[00:02:18]

Under one roof sharing on love[00:02:23]

Now the whole world knew about them[00:02:29]

Under one roof[00:02:35]

Sharing one love daring the world to part them[00:02:39]

Johnny said 'billy we can away from the world no more[00:02:48]

I'm gonna fetch my daddy[00:02:54]

I'm gonna show the world who[00:02:56]

I'm living for and if I lose my job[00:02:57]

If I lose my life you'll know one thing is true[00:03:02]

He can take away anything from me[00:03:07]

But he won't take me from you[00:03:10]

And at five thirty dead his daddy waited at the factory[00:03:15]

For him to come and how it did degrade[00:03:18]

Him he cut him and he slayed him[00:03:23]

And spat on him in front of ev'ryone[00:03:25]

As billy lay dying his papa started crying[00:03:28]

Because the parent through him he became[00:03:31]

And all because the person who has the[00:03:35]

First to give him love[00:03:36]

Had been a man[00:03:40]
