- Roger Whittaker Streets of London 歌詞
- Roger Whittaker
- Have you seen the old man
In the closed down market
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride
Hands held loosely at his side
Yesterdays paper , telling yesterdays news
[02:37.42][01:34.30][00:37.44]So how can you tell me youre lonely
[02:44.59][01:41.20][00:43.69]And say for you that the sun dont shine
[02:50.68][01:46.98][00:49.51]Let me take you by the hand
[02:53.08][01:49.43][00:52.35] And lead you through the streets of London
[02:57.15][01:53.41][00:56.44]Ill show you something
[02:59.55][01:55.78][00:59.06]To make you change your mind
Have you seen the old girl
Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
Shes no time for talking
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven
The same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone
Have you seen the old man
Outside the seamans mission
Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears
In our winter city the rain cries little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world which doesnt care
