Reckless Lyrics - Paul Kelly And The Messengers

James Reyne (Warner Chappell) 

Meet me down by the jetty landing 

Where the pontoons bump and sway 

All the others reading, standing 

As the Manly ferry cuts its way to Circular Quay 

Hear the captain blow his whistle 

So long you've been away 

I miss our early morning wrestle 

Not a very happy way to start the day 

She don't like that kind of behaviour 

She don't like that kind of behaviour 

Throw down your guns 

Don't be so reckless 

Throw down your guns 

Like Scott in the Antarctic 

Base camp so far away 

Russian subs beneath the Arctic 

Burke and Wills and camels 

Initials on the tree 

She don't like that kind of behaviour 

She don't like that kind of behaviour 

Throw down your guns 

Don't you be so reckless 

Throw down your guns
