Streets Of London Lyrics - Glen Campbell

Have you seen the old man 

In the closed down market 

Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes 

In his eyes you see no pride 

Hands held loosely at his side 

Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news 

So how can you tell me you're lonely 

And say for you that 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 your mind

Have you seen the old girl 

Who walks the streets of London 

Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags 

She's no time for talking 

She just keeps right on walking 

Carrying her home in two carrier bags 

So how can you tell me you're lonely 

And say for you that 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 your mind 

In the all-night café 

At a quarter past eleven 

The same old man sitting there on his own 

Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup 

And each tea lasts an hour 

And he wanders home alone 

Photos 

So how can you tell me that you're lonely 

And say for you that 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 your mind
