Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, we were travelling on the Chester Road
A lorry driver picking up a load
Said, "Where you heading, boys, you need a ride?"
We said "We're heading down south", and we jumped inside
[Chorus]
It was a good way to get to know you
A fine way to work it all out
It was a good way to get to know you
As we were making our way down south
Oh yeah, oh yeah, down south
[Verse 2]
The morning bus was where we two would meet
I sat beside you on an empty seat
We'd talk about guitars and Rock and Roll
They were the subjects that would never grow old
[Chorus]
It was a good way to get to know you
A fine way to work it all out
It was a good way to get to know you
Before we learned to twist and shout
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Before we learned to twist and shout
[Verse 3]
The lorry went as far as he could go
And dropped us off beside a busy road
We had to find somewhere to stay the night
But we knew that we would be alright
[Chorus]
It was a good way to get to know you
A fine way to work it all out
It was a good way to get to know you
As we were bombing around down south
Oh yeah, oh yeah, down south
[Outro]
It was a good way to get to know you
As we were bombing around down south
