Streets Of London by Ralph McTell
Have you (1)________ the old man
In the closed down market
Kicking up the papers with his (2)________ out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride
Hand (3)________ (4)______________ at his side
Yesterday's (5)__________ telling yesterday's news
So how can you tell me you're lonely
And say for you (6)________ the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And (7)________ you (8)______________ the streets of London
I'll (9)________ you something
To make you (10)____________ your mind
Have you (11)________ the old girl
Who walks the (12)______________ of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
She's no time for talking
She (13)________ (14)__________ right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
So how can you tell me you're lonely
And say for you (15)________ the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something
To make you change (16)________ mind
In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven
Same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
And (17)________ tea lasts an hour
And he (18)______________ home alone
So how can you tell me you're lonely
And say for you (19)________ the sun don't shine
Let me (20)________ you by hand
And lead you (21)______________ the streets of London
I'll show you something
To make you change your mind
Have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears
And in our winter city the rain (22)__________ a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care
...
