Gerry Rafferty - New Street Blues Lyrics
Sitting here is really bringing me downI think I'll get up and go downtownHave a drink and maybe look up a friendTo talk the hours away and hope the night will never endLook in my pockets to see what I've gotI count my money, I don't have a lotThe situation is always the sameI've got to get out of here, this place is driving me insaneHold on, I'm getting the new street bluesAbout a year ago, I knocked on this doorI asked my friend if I could sleep on the floorHe took me in, said I was welcome to stayI told him then that I was going to pay him back somedayHe took me in and all he asked was a song?It didn't sound? me when I knew it was wrongIt got so bad that we were drunk every nightAnd I'd pretend that come tomorrow night things would be alrightNew, new, new street bluesI've got new, new, new street blues
