lirik lagu small faces – rene
there she is parading on the quayside
you can find her every night
ah, waiting for a stevedore from tyneside –
why it’s rene, the docker’s delight!
well, if you just got off an oil tanker
and you’ve got the readies in the bin (readies = cash and having them ‘in the bin’ means having money)
just make your way down to the crown & anchor [london pub famous for being a rock music venue through the 60’s and 70’s)
ask for rene (ohh, h-llo ducks!) and you’ll be well in.
she’s rene, the docker’s delight, and a ship’s in every night
romping with a stoker from the coast of kuala lumpur
love is like an ‘ole in the wall
a line-up in the warehouse no trouble at all
if you can spare the money, you’ll have a ball –
she’ll have yours (it sounds like ‘she’ll have your oars out’ but it’s just the way he sings ‘yours-a’
well, there’s a kid of every shape and colour
safely hid in coal-sheds, double locked (this alludes to black kids by white prost-tutes, hidden away)
where it’s been said that rene is the mother.
i wonder – well, there you go!
she’s rene, the docker’s delight, and a ship’s in every night
groping with a stoker from the coast of kuala lumpur
