about

In honour of all 'fallen comrades' - the rudies who were ever present at gigs in the '80's and somehow life has got in the way! We miss you!

lyrics

Rudy’s got himself a wife and kids, found a job that pays ok
Struggled for a while to make ends meet, nothing saved for rainy days
Rudy’s pining for the days of old, plays his Ska LPs to death
One of these days he’s going to make a gig, but it hasn’t happened yet
Where are you Rudy? Where are you Rude Boy?
Where are your Rudy? Where are you Rude Girl?
Rude boy’s got himself in trouble again, robbed a local liquor store
He’s been in and out of jail for years, but he’s trying for no more
Told the judge that now his lesson’s learned, no more time he’ll ever get
For this time he’s going to straighten out, but it hasn’t happened yet?
Where are you Rudy? etc
Rude girl’s cleaning up his mess again, seems it’s never going to end
Wonders how it ever came to this, who the hell did she offend?
One of these days she’s going to break her chains, ride off into the sunset
One of these days she’s going to pack her bags, but it hasn’t happened yet
Where are you Rudy? Etc
