John Wesley Harding - Pound Pound Pound lyrics
I was standing on a corner kicking my heels Had my coat buttoned up beneath my chin And I saw in some girl's eyes, she thought I was making deals There was just me and the clock struck out I was looking for something to scream and shout about So I took a train and I went back home There was no one to tell so I didn't telephone That place is just another big unknown to me That place is just another big unknown to me The sea made angry faces, the waves were getting high Saw them kicking down onto the front And the cars dodged the water that was flooding on by And I just stood there, an orphan fool I saw kids smoking chain on their way back from school A tramp got reckless in the center of town He was talking about Jesus as the sun went down A lifetime of sorrows, he was ready to drown A lifetime of sorrows, I think he was going to drown Well I hit this bar where I used to hang out Talked to the guy behind the bar, then dropped a few names He didn't know what I was talking about So I put my money down and I shot some pool Beat two punks, I was feeling cool A couple of girls started to flirt And I felt really old as they tugged my shirt And I walked outside as they hurled some dirt at me I walked outside as they hurled dirt at me Went to visit Helen by St. Helen's Park That place used to frighten me now all I can see Was a couple of wide-boy sharks flashing their teeth in the small-town dark Huddled myself in the cold That old red brick house I can find it blindfolded I loved her when I was sixteen She was an old town new brown beauty queen Now I just spend my time filling the gaps in between her and me Well I just spend my time filling the gaps that have grown in |
