Fenchurch Street
I have such unnatural fears
The Blackwall Tunnel,
The Southend pier.
I'd swap London's tower blocks,
For a night with you, at Tilbury Docks.
So I met this bloke. at Fenchurch Street.
I was minding my business just reading Heat
He told me he always wondered,
how to kiss a girl from Chafford Hundred.
I said I couldn't help I was from Ockendon.
And he ran off to his train on platform ten
After I wished I hadn't told that lie to him
I'm from Basildon.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
You seem to me, out of my reach
As we stood on Shoeburyness Beach.
I'd swap London's city life,
For Canvey Island as man and wife.
I saw that guy again after about a week
Train late, signaling problems in Purfleet.
He came out of Tie Rack and bought an umbrella
Definitely not my normal type of fella.
He came up to me and said can I buy you a drink,
I said mate I'm not a cheap as you think.
And I told him straight out he had got me all wrong,
I'm from Basildon.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
The Blackwall Tunnel,
The Southend pier.
I'd swap London's tower blocks,
For a night with you, at Tilbury Docks.
So I met this bloke. at Fenchurch Street.
I was minding my business just reading Heat
He told me he always wondered,
how to kiss a girl from Chafford Hundred.
I said I couldn't help I was from Ockendon.
And he ran off to his train on platform ten
After I wished I hadn't told that lie to him
I'm from Basildon.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
You seem to me, out of my reach
As we stood on Shoeburyness Beach.
I'd swap London's city life,
For Canvey Island as man and wife.
I saw that guy again after about a week

And I told him straight out he had got me all wrong,

Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
Fell in love with an Essex Girl
Let me into your Essex World.
