Graham Parker - Watch the moon come down + lyrics
I don't own this, just spreading the music
In this dirty town there's nothing going for me
No shows going down that I would want to see
Nothing but the midnight train
In this shady street on a top floor flat
Women take their sheets down to the laundromat
And as the night falls on this town
I'm going to watch the moon come down
I'm going to watch the moon come down
I'm going to watch the moon come down
Watch it come down
As the workmen walk home, reflected in the car chrome
Splashing through the gutters and the sand
The birds move in the rafters hearing echoes of the laughter
From children in a playground close at hand
And hands inside my pockets, staring at the light sockets
Everyone's been blown out everyone's been thrown out
I said baby baby baby baby baby baby
Watch the moon come down
I'm going to watch the moon come down
Yeah , watch the moon come down
Watch it come down
If I stay out all night catch the midnight train's headlights
Follow the tracks beyond sight to the bend
Who've I got to let down, somebody with their head down
Bargin' into solid ground in the end
And hands inside my pockets, staring at the lightsockets
Everyone's been blown out, everyone's been thrown out
I say baby baby baby baby baby
Watch the moon come down
I'm going to watch the moon come down
Uhm, watch the moon come down
Watch it come down
Uhm yeah, watch it come down
Uhm uhm yeah, watch it, watch it, watch it, watch it, watch it, watch it, watch it.....
watch it come down, yeah
