Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street lyrics

Winding your way down on Baker Street

Light in your head and dead on your feet

Just another crazy day, you'll drink the night away

And forget about everything

This city's dead and makes you feel so cold

It's got so many people but it's got no soul

And it's taken you so long to find out you were wrong

When you thought it held everything

You used to think that it was so easy

You used to say that it was so easy

But you're tryin', you're tryin' now

Another year and then you'd be happy

Just one more year and then you'd be happy

But you're cryin', you're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a light in his place

He opens the door, he's got that look on his face

He asks you where you've been, you tell him what you've seen

And talk about everything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land

He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands

And then he'll settle down, it's a quiet little town

And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'

Cause you know he'll never stop movin'

He's a rollin', a rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new morning

The sun is shining, it's a new morning

You're going, you're going home
