Rudie Can't Fail

(Strummer/Jones)

Sing, Michael, sing
On the route of the 19 Bus!

We hear them sayin'
How you get a rude and a-reckless?
Don't you be so crude and a feckless

Rudie can't fail, no, no

So we reply

But I tell you that I can't live in service
Like the doctor who was born for a purpose***
Rudie can't fail
