Breakfast With St. Swithin

Lyrics

I had breakfast with St. Swithin
 He was waiting on a train
 He said, "Tell me all your troubles boy,
 I won't be through this way again."
 I said, "There's a certain one, and
 Her beauty's like an engine."
 He said, "Hang on son, I've heard this one,
 And the rest ain't worth the mention."
 Said I'm sick of all you bleeding-hearts
 Hung up over skirts
 You always spend your money
 Just to end up feeling like dirt
 You sit home there alone
 Until all your youth is gone
 The bright lights of the city:
 They're waiting for you son.
 Let's go running through the streets (2x)
 Stop along and chat with everyone we meet
 (repeat)
 He brought me to the bars
 And he brought me around 'til one
 He dragged me here, and dragged me there
 Thought I'd never see the sun
 He dropped me on the corner
 I never saw him go
 I thought about his advice as I
 Walked home in the snow.
 Ain't got no wishing well
 &#x'cause dead men never tell
 And all rose up from hell tonight
 "cause I guess that's just as well
 I've never come in early
 And I've never come home late
 I've never sang out of key
 And I've never sang that great.
