Clock Of St. James
(Indisponível)
The clock of St James lookin' down through the rain
At the city blacken with time
Alleys and the doorways are grim the street lights dim
From the circle to grime
The pityful scream from the second street bridge
Was drowned by the three o'clock chime
But the clock of St James lookin' down through the rain
Knows I committed a crime
Clock of St James clock of St James clockin' time in the sky
Lookin' deep in my brain
Seein' my weakness seein' my shame where can I hide
From clock of St James
The clock of St James lookin' down through the rain
Lookin' at a grim pan of mine
The body that falls from the second street bridge
Is splashin' the watery swine
The lights of the bridge never touchin' the hand
Clutchin' a dollar and dime
But the clock of St James looking down through the rain
Knows I committed a crime
Clock of St James clock of St James...
I run through the city I run through the shadows
Of the buildings all blocken with time
Alleys and the doorways are grim my hand still
Clutchin' a dollar and dime
The pityful scream from the second street bridge
Was drowned by the three o'clock chime
But the clock of St James looking down through the rain
Knows I committed a crime
Clock of St James clock of St James...
