Sheriff of Huddersfield

Iron Maiden

Life in a city living in L.A. 
Is a long way from Huddersfield town  
The back of the Rainbow's a long way from heaven 
But that's where he get's his pork pie 
Limos and ladies they're driving him queasy 
Rugby and cricket's unknown 
Baseball and football they're making him lazy 
Your fan club says "Rodney come home" 
 
R: The Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castle 
   Look down on Hollywood Hills 
   The Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castle 
   You're our own Hot Rod on wheels 

A good game of arrows a few dozen barrels 
The Nautilus rusts in the yard 
But for Yorkshire he's yearning but because he's earning 
He'll always live in L.A. 
A custom made wallet that stays in his pocket 
And never comes out to pay bills 
He's winning at poker and playing the Joker 
And he always cheats when he deals

(Rodney's rap) 
Hello, let me introduce meself! 
My name is Rodney. I'm immensely strong. 
When I were a lad, I could lift up five 
navies on an end of a shovel. 
The reason I never took martial arts because 
I was immensely fearsome and 
I'd probably kill everybody 
I came into contact with it. 
I was phenomenally strong. 
Pride and ego, my lads, pride and ego, 
is what makes the world rotate. 
And everybody knows the centre of the universe is Huddersfield 
but I don't live there anymore. 
I live in Los Angeles. 
It's great!... I think 

Rufus the red has a crane by his bed 
To wrench himself up in the morn' 
But if you dare to tread at the foot of his bed 
You'll wish you'd never been born. 
A bear with a sore head we mean your forehead 
He slumbers for most of the day 
Wide eyed and legless baked beans for breakfast 
Your problem Rodney L.A.
