Shake Some Action! - The Sooner the Better Lyrics

Of all the women in Scotland
I have to be chained to you
We're going to hide out in this hotel
Just follow what I say and do

We're a honeymooning couple from London
And they're after us for sure
Could you keep a secret not give us up
If they come knocking at your door?

You sign your new name, darling
The sooner the better

Could we trouble you for some supper
Just a whiskey and soda
We can get these wet clothes off our backs
And warm up by the fire

I haven't slept in four days
I'm not here to kiss your lips
The cradle is warm so lets get some rest
Then get these handcuffs off your slender wrists

So long as you are chained to me,
I'll lie wherever you lie
But in the morning when we wake up
There'll be no time to say goodbye
