scott walker - thanks for chicago mr. james lyrics
you always said i wouldn’t stay
i guess you saw the way
before it all began
i’ve always been a changin’ train
and when you think on this
you might forgive me then
thanks for chicago mr james
and all the shiny suits
and all the shining names
the things a country boy can’t grace
without the look of shame
upon a city face
and you needed more
than the smile i wore
you picked me up on my way down
the dusty one horse town
i won’t forget the jail
the mayor’s wife and cadillac
the sheriff on my back
’til you put up the bail
thanks for chicago mr james
you got a lot of grace
but you’re an empty place
the dawn falls hard upon my face
i’ll move as i began
thru’ fields without a plan
thanks for chicago mr james
that world of grey and gold
that watched you growing old
the things i never saw i see
to think that i’m still free
and i’m not feeling cold
