There's a young boy in the queue |
|
There's not much else here for him to do |
|
He's had a drink, he's had a few |
|
Down the pub on Hope Street |
|
Dear old lady, you're looking thin |
|
Got a shopping bag with your life in |
|
Your old man's going through the bins |
|
So it goes on Hope Street |
|
Rain on me come pouring down |
|
Clean the dirt off this old town |
|
Tell the sun to come around |
|
Show his face on Hope Street |
|
There's a fight right down the street |
|
The betting shop has got him beat |
|
He blew his money for the week |
|
On a horse called Hope Street |
|
No old faces out today |
|
Someone took them all away |
|
Cleaning up or so they say |
|
The dirty face of Hope Street |
|
Rain on me come pouring down |
|
Clean the dirt of this old town |
|
Tell the sun to come around |
|
Show his face on Hope Street |
|
Rain on me come pouring down |
|
Clean the dirt of this old town |
|
Tell the sun to come around |
|
Show his face on Hope Street |
|
Everyday I look at you |
|
Dressed up in your ties of blue |
|
Saying there's not much that you can do |
|
To help the kids on Hope Street |
|
You don't seem to even care |
|
That it was you that put them there |
|
You seem to think they like it there |
|
Hanging out on Hope Street |
|
Rain on me come pouring down |
|
Clean the dirt off this old town |
|
Tell the sun to come around |
|
Show his face on Hope Street |
