[00:00.00] Bleeker Street (2:42)
[00:02.47] P. Simon, 1964
[00:04.09] Previously unreleased demo from March 1964;
[00:05.05] the final version was released on Wednesday Morning, 3 a.m. Bleecker Street
[00:07.53] Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank
[00:12.45] Like a shroud
[00:16.06]
[00:16.70] it covers Bleeker Street
[00:20.58] Fills the alleys where men sleep
[00:25.21] Hides the shepherd from the sheep
[00:33.21]
[00:38.57] Voices leaking from a sad cafe
[00:43.05] Smiling faces try to understand
[00:51.31] I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand
[00:56.67] On Bleeker Street
[01:02.72]
[01:08.92] A poet reads his crooked rhyme
[01:13.50] Holy, holy is his sacrament
[01:21.85] Thirty dollars pays your rent
[01:27.06] On Bleeker Street
[01:33.46]
[01:39.72] I heard a church bell softly chime
[01:44.74] In a melody sustainin'
[01:52.56] It's a long road to Canaan
[01:58.02] On Bleeker Street
[02:04.52]
[02:29.31] Bleeker Street
[02:35.38]
