Lyrics:
She got out of town
On a railway, New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien out on Broadway
There's some things in this world
You just
She got out of town
On the railway New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on Broadway
There's some things in this world
You just
She got out of town
On the railway New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on Broadway
There's some things in this world
You just
She got out of town
On the railway New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on Broadway
There's some things in this world
You just
eighteen hundred forty-three, I paid my
Passage cross the sea to work upon the railway,
To work upon the railway
From New York to Amerikee.
(I tell you)
She got out of town on the railway, New York bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on Broadway
Well, some things in this world you just can't
eighteen hundred forty-three, I paid my
Passage cross the sea to work upon the railway,
To work upon the railway
From New York to Amerikee.
(I tell you)
on knee
Our faces pressed against the dusty railway carriage panes
As all our lives went rolling on the clicking wheels of trains
The school years passed
you just didn't care
Oh you're so familiar
You're so familiar to me
In the half light of this railway station
You're so familiar to me
on knee
Our faces pressed against the dusty railway carriage panes
As all our lives went rolling on the clicking wheels of trains
The school years passed
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station runnin' scared
Layin' low seeking out the poor quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low
Seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low
Seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station
Running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for
of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station,
Running scared,
Laying low,
Seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go,
Looking for
