Marianne Faithfull – Portland Town lyrics
I was born in Portland town
I was born in Portland town
Yes I was, yes I was, yes I was.

I got married in Portland town
I got married in Portland town
Yes I did, yes I did, yes I did.

I had children, one, two, three
I had children, one, two, three
Yes I did, yes I did, yes I did.

Took my children off to war
Took my children off to war
Yes they did, yes they did, yes they did.

Killed my children one by one
Killed my children one by one
Yes they did, yes they did, yes they did.

No more children in Portland Town
No more children in Portland Town
No I won't, no I won't, no I won't.

I was born in Portland town
I was born in Portland town
Yes I was, yes I was, yes I was.
