album: Slide Away the Screen (1979) live version on album: Travelling Man - The Journey The Songs (1999) [Intro]           [Verse 1] If Harry go back to Guy-ana Some of the ladies will surely cry If Harry go back to Guy-ana Some of the ladies will surely cry. [Chorus] They say don’t go Don’t go Guyana Don’t listen to them Who may be telling you to Hey don’t go Don’t go Guyana Cos what would them old ones What will them old folks What will them old ones do? [Verse 2] Whose strong arms would carry them down To the bathroom and slip off their dressing gown? Whose warm voice would soothe their fears? A little tea and sympathy in the fading years. [Chorus] They say don’t go Don’t go Guyana Don’t listen to them Who may be telling you to Hey don’t go Don’t go Guyana Cos what would them old ones What will them old folks What will them old ones do? [Verse 3] If Harry go back to Guy-ana There’ll be silence in the old men’s room If Harry go back to Guy-ana There’ll be silence in the old men’s room. [Chorus] They say don’t go Don’t go Guyana Tuna fish boats May be calling you home Hey don’t go Don’t go Guyana Cos what would them old ones What will them old folks What will them old ones do? [Verse 4] Who is it turning the old men on? He give them something to smoke With their old Holborn Who is it telling them romantic lies? Put a little spark back into tired old eyes.  [Chorus] They say don’t go Don’t go Guyana Don’t listen to them Who may be telling you to Hey don’t go Don’t go Guyana Cos what would them old ones What will them old folks What will them old ones do?
