The Streets Of London lyrics

Artist  : Beatles 
Song : The Streets Of London
 
Have you seen the old man in the closed down
market,
kicking up the paper with worn out shoes ?
In his eyes you see no pride, and held loosely at
his side,
Yesterday’s paper telling yesterday’s news.


Refrain:
So how can you tell me you’re lonely, and say,
for you that the sun don’t shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though
the streets of London,
I’ll show you something to make you change your
mind.


Have you seen the old girl who walks to the
streets of London,
dirt in her hair and her clothes just in rags?
She’s no time for talking, she just keeps right
on walking,
Carrying here home in two carrier bags


Refrain:
So how can you tell me you’re lonely, and say,
for you that the sun don’t shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though
the streets of London,
I’ll show you something to make you change your
mind.


In the all-night cafe at a quarter past eleven,
same old man sitting there on his ownLooking at
the world over the rim of him tea-cup,
Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders home
alone.


Refrain:
So how can you tell me you’re lonely, and say,
for you that the sun don’t shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though
the streets of London,
I’ll show you something to make you change your
mind.
