BAKER STREET

Gerry Rafferty



Winding your way down on Baker Street

Lite in your head, and dead on your feet

Well another crazy day, you drink the night away

And forget about everything

This city desert makes you feel so cold, its got

So many people but its got no soul

And its taken you so long to find out you were wrong

When you thought it held everything.

You used to think that it was so easy

You used to say that it was so easy

But you're tryin, you're tryin now

Another year and then you'd be happy

Just one more year and then you'd be happy

But you're cryin', you're cryin now

Way down the street there's a light in his place

You open the door, he's got that look on his face

And he asks you where you've been, you tell him who you've seen

And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land

He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands

And then he'll settle down, it's a quiet little town

And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep moving

You know he's never gonna stop moving

Cause he's rollin, He's the rolling stone

And when you wake up it's a new morning

The sun is shining it's a new morning

And you're going, you're going home
