Kings Cross Blues

Lyrics

Jackson-Harcourt Early train starts on time Everybody else is feeling fine Reading the papers and studying the form And the people just taking this as norm Except me I don't seem to function till at least a quarter to three Stare at the floor I don't want to take this Kings Cross train no more I'm drinking whiskey at the bar Can't afford the dining car Ruddy faced soldiers drink and curse Buy themselves out if it gets much worse Grates on me 'Cause I don't even share the same philosophy Leaving the bar Well, I wish that Kings Cross station didn't have to be so far Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues Well, taking this journey to the South To find work to feed the extra mouth I'll find it hard to have to say 'Cause they don't talk the same way Grates on me Well, I don't even share the same philosophy Leaving the bar Oh, wish that Kings Cross station didn't have to be so far Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues Kings Cross blues
