Rainy Day Bergen Women

Lyrics

(Rain/Coughing/Harmonica) Wish  I had one of those little Bergen girls All  I want is one of them little Bergen girls Wish I had one of those little Bergen girls To love me and touch my face Be  waiting for me- keep me in my place To  sing in the kitchen when I'm feeling low Kiss me goodbye when I got to go Rainy  day Bergen women are the best I've travelled the world - forget the rest Rainy day Bergen women are the best I've travelled the world - forget the rest I'm  walking alone in Bergen Down by the cold fish tanks Where the fish swim round and round Waiting to die Their eyes are so soulful I can't even look One fish tries to make a great escape The other know it's far too late I sit in my hotel room Change my guitar strings With the tv on Try not to think about things I got a certain freedom And a bucket of grief And my father in heaven That is my belief Everything changes When your daddy dies You see new colours In stranger's eyes I call my mother but what can I say? We talk of the weather and the empty days Always return to a moment of praise And an image of loving we could never erase An image of loving we could never erase Wish I had one of those little Bergen girls All I want is one of them little Bergen girls Wish I had one of those little Bergen girls (Spoken Word in Altered Voice) "Bring me my cage of sorrows Bring me my word That I may smite down mine enemies Bring me the snow on the mountain That I remember as a little hill Bring me the country church Where my true love and I lay down In darkness In darkness Bring me the papers that blow down the street Those commercial words Blowing down to the deep rolling sea How I love that trash Oh- how I love that trash Bring me the paperweight Complete with the effect of snow Falling on the poorly made tiger In the window of shop That has nowhere to go And I have no place to take thee I have no place to take thee" (Singing in Altered Voice) The bridge is too twisted- I'l fall off the side And all the wee fishes swim up my backside The bridge is too twisted- I'l fall off the side And all the wee fishes swim up my backside (Thunder/Rain/Car sounds/Coughing)
