What Are The Lyrics For The Streets of London By Ralph McTell?
Have you seen the old man in the closed down market
Picking up the papers with his worn out shoes In his eyes you see no pride and hanging loosely at his side Yesterdays paper, telling yesterdays news So how can you tell me you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something to make you change your mind Have you seen the old dear who walks the streets of London Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags She's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking Carrying her home, in two carrier bags So how can you tell me you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something to make you change your mind And in the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven Same old man sitting there on his own Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup And each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone So how can you tell me that you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something to make you change your mind Have you seen the old man outside the seaman's mission Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears And in the winter city, the rain cries a little pity For one more forgotten hero, and a World that doesn't care So how can you tell me that you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something to make you change your mind |
