The Ritz we never signed for
Savoys they can keep
There's only one place that we know
And that is where we sleep
Underneath the arches
We dream our dreams away (Bow-bow-bo-ba-de-be-do)
Underneath the arches (Bow-bow-bo-ba-de-ba-do)
On cobblestones we lay (Bow-bow-da-da-ba-bo)
Back to back we're sleeping (Bow-de-bow-ba-bow-ba-bow-de-do)
Tired out and worn (Bow-ba-dow-ba-do-be-do)
Sorry when the daylight comes creeping heralding the dawn
Sleeping when it's raining
And sleeping when it's fine
Trains rattling by above (A-bow-den-da-bee-da-bee-bow)
Pavement is our pillow
Without a sheet we'll lay
Underneath the arches
We dream our dreams away
