Streetcar

(albüm: Morning Bugle - 1972)

Streetcar, streetcar ain't going too fast
Headed for the schoolyard
Streetcar, streetcar coming in last
Bang along that track ain't working too hard

Sitting on the sandbox pretend I'm in control
Back and forth across the county riding
Stopping in the morning dew to watch the sun come up
Play a little catch down at the siding

Streetcar, streetcar making me late
Taking me down on the levy
Streetcar, streetcar with your precious freight
And your load it must be heavy

Straining every timber as your plunging through the woods
Listen to your windows almost breaking
Whistling down the bottom, then up to Clayton Road
Gotta stop, pull up, pick up some little old lady

Streetcar, streetcar wasn't you fine
When we played so hard
Streetcar, streetcar on down the blind
Headed for the schoolyard

Give me that old streetcar and that cinder box of pine
Where I can climb aboard and be playing so hard
Streetcar, streetcar wasn't you fine
Headed for the schoolyard

Streetcar, coming so slow
Headed for the schoolyard
Southbound, anywhere you go
Bang along that track ain't working too hard
