Tram Of Old London Lyrics - Singles - Robyn Hitchcock

Trams of old London, 

Taking my baby into the past in it. 

Trams of old London blow my mind. 

Ludgate, Fenchurch, Highgate Hill; 

Rolling slowly up there still, uh-huh. 

Waterloo and Clerkenwell, 

Out to Aldgate East as well, uh-huh. 

On a clear night you can see 

Where the rails used to be. 

Oh, it seems like ancient myth 

They once ran to Hammersmith. 

Trams of old London, 

Taking my baby into the past in it. 

Trams of old London blow my mind. 

Through Electric Avenue, 

Brixton, down in southwest too, uh-huh. 

Teddington and Kennington, 

Twickenham and Paddington, uh-huh. 

In the blitz they never closed 

Though they blew up half the roads. 

Oh, it hurts me just to see 'em 

Going dead in a museum. 

Ah... 

Trams of old London, 

Taking my baby into the past in it. 

Trams of old London blow my mind. 

Trams of old London, 

Taking my baby into the past in it. 

Trams of old London blow my mind.
