Dirty Davey Lyrics

Cover art for Dirty Davey lyrics by Levellers

A song against the police. Davey's got the police on his back and keeps on getting arrested by them, as they see him as a habitual troublemaker. It's an endless cycle of arrest, then bail, then arrest, so he hangs himself in jail. Originally this was a protest song by the McDermott's Two Hours about the corruptness in the police - it wasn't written by the Levs.
