Round trip to Wembley

I was born in Wemb er Ly

Left there at the age of three

On to Southgate: that is home

Where I was schooled and I was grown

At 17 the family moved

Quite devastating as it proved

Devizes did not suit me well

Too quiet, too rural: it was hell

To Bristol, married and divorce

To Bath: loved living there of course

Off to Israel for a while

To try out a brand new lifestyle 

Back to Potterne until when

To Basingstoke to be with Ken

Ash and Jo came along then

To join stepbrothers Steve and Ben

Finally we settled down

to spend much time near Guildford town

From the hills you can see

A lovely view of Wemb er ly
