All these kinds of places make it seem like it's been ages |
| [00:24.810] |
Tomorrow some new building will scrape the sky |
| [00:29.640] |
I love this country dearly |
| [00:31.690] |
I can feel the ladder clearly |
| [00:34.230] |
But I never thought I'd be alone to try |
| [00:39.300] |
Once I was outside Penn Station selling red and white carnations |
| [00:44.320] |
We were still alone my wife and I |
| [00:48.760] |
Before we married saved my money |
| [00:51.220] |
Brought my dear wife over |
| [00:53.170] |
Now I work to bring my family stateside |
| [00:57.010] |
|
| [00:58.360] |
But off the boat they stayed awhile then scattered across the coast |
| [01:03.060] |
Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most |
| [01:07.530] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [01:17.210] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [01:26.880] |
|
| [01:27.340] |
Practice isn't perfect but the market cuts the loss |
| [01:31.310] |
I remind myself that times could be much worse |
| [01:36.200] |
My wife won't ask me questions |
| [01:38.400] |
There's not so much to ask |
| [01:40.620] |
And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse |
| [01:45.870] |
Once my mother-in-law came just to stay a couple nights |
| [01:50.320] |
Then decided she would stay the rest of her life |
| [01:55.280] |
I watch my little children play some board game in the kitchen |
| [01:59.650] |
|
| [01:59.940] |
And I sit and pray they never feel my strife |
| [02:03.370] |
|
| [02:04.840] |
But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone |
| [02:09.350] |
He made some bad investments now the accounts are overdrawn |
| [02:13.960] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [02:23.710] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [02:32.940] |
|
| [02:33.640] |
Honey, it's your son I think I borrowed just too much |
| [02:37.770] |
we had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle to front |
| [02:42.480] |
and tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young |
| [02:47.440] |
and tomorrow you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and their kids |
| [02:51.990] |
we can rip apart those socialists and all their damn taxes |
| [02:56.880] |
but see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees |
| [03:01.700] |
I'm just too much a coward, to admit when i'm in need |
| [03:06.470] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [03:15.970] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [03:25.470] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [03:35.110] |
I took a walk(took a walk, took a walk, took a walk, took a walk...) |
| [03:45.230] |
