Judey on a Street |
| All day I’m gonna hit on a drum |
| Takes a little time for her to come |
| You’re just a girl on a street |
| Ah, take it away |
| Walk around, what d’you say? |
| And how the whole world sadly sung |
| While you were wishing you were young |
| You’re just a girl on a street |
| The snow it softly falls outside |
| And you’re watching it, spacing out |
| And you’re lying on your side |
| You wanna get involved in prayer |
| As for the church, you don’t know where |
| You’re just a girl on a street |
| You’re just a girl on a street |
| With your hair going gray |
| Eyes like greenish macramé |
| Hey, the record goes like… |
| I drove a mile in your sedan |
| Rain hit my windshield like an open hand |
| I headed north in a haze of speed |
| I knew exactly what we need |
| I stood in a church with a shield on the sign |
| The smell of incense in the aisles |
| I felt like a giant spinning wheel |
| Now I know how the minister must feel |
| And when his wife takes off her gown |
| And then she lets her long hair down |
| Lit by the world that’s going round |
| She’s just a girl on a street |
| She’s just a girl on a street |
| She’s just a girl |
| Once I died in a dream |
| And the world without me went fine |
| And then years went by |
| Take me to that city in the sky |
| The clouds are aquamarine |
| The architect remains unseen |
| I’ll live my life out on your street |
| Up where the bluebirds fly |
| Help me to the other side (x6) |
| And when I get to the other side |
| I’ll give those harp strings a strum |
| I’m gonna hit on that drum |
| I’m gonna wait for my girl to come |
| You know it takes a little time |
