RCA Records - RCA 124 / (PB 5405)
Lock Up Your Daughters was the second single to be released from the band's forthcoming tenth Studio Album,"Till Deaf Do Us Part" and a right powerful number it was, too! It reached Number 29 in the UK Singles Charts, remaining in the charts for eight weeks.

My thanks to Chris 'The Historian' Selby for his relentless research. It is said, in certain circles, that Walsall Archives have a seat reserved specifically for him and that Wolverhampton archives consult him when searching the Express & Star.

Lock Up Your Daughters
(Neville Holder & James Whild Lea)
Yeh yeh yeh
Sometimes you're acting the fool
Sometimes you're breaking the rules
Sometimes you want to run away
Sometimes you stay out of school
But it's a dirty old town and you know that it's where we all belong
Tell your mama back home 'coz she was just the same when she was young
I want to give you some advice
Lock up your daughters right now
It will give you a smile on your face
Lock up your daughters somehow
This is the time, the time and the place.
Sometimes you whip up a storm
Don't get to bed until dawn
Sometimes you get a little high
You'll wish you'd never been born
Well it's a crazy old world everybody's got to get along
Tell your mama back home 'coz she was just the same when she was young
I tell you right now
Lock up your daughters right now
It will give you a smile on your face
Lock up your daughters somehow
This is the time, the time and the place.
You'd better lock up your daughters right now
It will give you a smile on your face
Lock up your daughters somehow
This is the time, the time and the place.
Lock up your daughters right now
