[00:00:00] Sights And Sounds Of London Town - Richard Thompson

[00:00:17] Oh Gillian she's a Doncaster lass

[00:00:20] Trains it down on the quarter past

[00:00:24] Friday night leaves the kids at home

[00:00:27] And struts her stuff on the Euston Road

[00:00:31] Saying Do you want some company darling

[00:00:36] Do you want some company now

[00:00:39] My place your place or no place

[00:00:42] I could use the extra cash anyhow

[00:00:46] That's the sights and sounds of London Town

[00:00:50] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:00:54] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:01:09] Oh Jean-Paul he came over from Toulouse

[00:01:12] They told him that London was the golden goose

[00:01:16] He never got his hands on enough to eat

[00:01:19] He never did get his arse up off the street

[00:01:23] Wanted to be a rap DJ

[00:01:27] They took his pulse then they turned him away

[00:01:31] Under the radar of your fellow man

[00:01:34] With all that charisma it ain't worth a damn

[00:01:38] Saying Lend me your shoes till Monday

[00:01:42] Oh brother can you lend me a comb

[00:01:46] I can wash dishes all night long

[00:01:49] I just need my fare back home

[00:01:53] That's the sights and sounds of London Town

[00:01:57] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:02:01] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:02:27] Well Jackie she tried just about everything

[00:02:31] She tried to dance she tried to sing

[00:02:35] Too many doors slammed in your face

[00:02:38] It leaves a nasty aftertaste

[00:02:42] You scramble around for a little bit of cash

[00:02:46] Ease the pain with Mister Flash

[00:02:49] Saint Annes Court is the rendezvous

[00:02:53] For those who share your point of view

[00:02:57] Saying This is the last time you will see me

[00:03:01] Never again no way

[00:03:05] One more time I'll never ask you again

[00:03:08] I've just got to get through today

[00:03:12] That's the sights and sounds of London Town

[00:03:16] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:03:19] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:03:42] Oh Mickey he sleeps every two or three days

[00:03:46] Runs through Soho like a rat through a maze

[00:03:49] A little blackmail here a sting on the side

[00:03:53] Enough to get started on the next enterprise

[00:03:57] Dresses expensive but that's just a crutch

[00:04:00] Like his word or his handshake

[00:04:03] It doesn't mean much

[00:04:04] Depends on his kickback from the middle man

[00:04:08] And whatever he can beat out of Sally Ann

[00:04:12] Saying Lucky I'm the one you ran into

[00:04:16] Oh lucky I've taken a shine

[00:04:19] Lucky I'm needing a partner

[00:04:23] 50/50 right down the line

[00:04:27] Oh that's the sights and sounds of London Town

[00:04:30] The sights and sounds of London Town

[00:04:34] The sight and sounds of London Town
