Rate Railway Shoes
Artist : Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians Song : Railway Shoes
The leaves on the table are all turning
grey The first time she saw you she hoped you
were gay It's hard to recover when you're the
disease But I'm ready I swear it, i'm walking
around in these Railway shoes In my railway
shoes
The ghost of your father is Right
by your side He's so close to you that he's
almost inside He's guiding your head and he's
guiding your limbs -- But he isn't you, and
you know you're not him In your railway
shoes In your railway shoes
Take the
train, take the other train, mister, and stand by
(Take the train...) Take the train, take the
other train, honey -- and ride (Take the
train)
Madam I burn for you night after
day I'm empty without you and colder than
clay The wax on my body is making me
cold But I'll never be able to go where I'm
told in my Railway shoes In my railway
shoes In my railway shoes In my railway
shoes
Take the train, take the other
train, honey -- and stand by Take the train --
take the other train, mister -- and
ride Ride Ride Ride
