Just in time my love
Made a wish tonight
This old daddy's gonna
Keep you away from nasty Satan

Kiss this on the lips
And leave a swig for me
I'm so glad you could 
Come on over and

Sit on my knee
And fall in love with me
Hey it's alright
I can sit here all night

I'm the araldite 
On your broken dream
I'm the green percent 
In your nicotine
I'm your friend for life
And I cross my heart
And it's fair to say we
Made a good start

Sit on my knee
And fall in love with me
Hey it's alright
I can sit here all night

Jimmy Barnes

James Dixon Swan (born 28 April 1956), better known as Jimmy Barnes, is a Scottish-born Australian rock singer-songwriter. His father Jim Swan was a prizefighter and his older brother John Swan is also a rock singer. It was actually John who had encouraged and taught Jim how to sing as he wasn't really interested at the time. His career as both a solo performer and as the lead vocalist with the rock band Cold Chisel has made him one of the most popular and best-selling Australian music artists of all time. The combination of 14 Australian Top 40 albums for Cold Chisel and 13 charting solo albums, including nine No. 1s, gives Barnes the highest number of hit albums of any Australian artist. more »
