[Verse 1]
Wake up early heading for the M1
200 miles till we get to London
We were sleeping on the floor
Living on bread and jam

Because we thought we'd hit the big time
We didn't give a damn

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes

[Verse 2]
Went to dance
On a Friday night
Every London girl we asked
Was so uptight

I saw a pretty little girl
She came from France
She said "Oui"
When I asked her to dance
The world was spinning
Like the glitter ball above
...and already I was falling in love

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
We were Rory and the Hurricanes

[Bridge]
Going down to 'Soho'
Was the place you had to go
It's where everyone was made
Down to the Two Eye Cafe
That's where Tommy Steele would play

[Verse 3]
Next time we went to London Town
We didn't (do) much hanging around
I was with you know who
I played the drums like I always do

[Chorus]
We were Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
Rory and the Hurricanes
