van wagner – thick as thieves كلمات اغاني
he left for baltimore when he was just a kid
thats where i met him in the fall of ’36
in a smokey pool hall on 89th and spruce
we knew he was a country boy ’cause of the size of his boots
with a homemade poolstick he began to show his stuff i lost three packs of cigarettes and i had seen enough, we bet tobacco and dungarees
but when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as thieves
we became the best of friends, me and sam
shot pool all over town, and rambled through the land
hoe [?]boat on frieghters on the b&o tracks
took nothing with us but the shirts on our backs
dodging railroad bulls in almost every town
most nights our pillow was a stone on the ground
livin off of cabbage and black eyed pea’s
but when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as thieves
got split by draft cards in the spring of ’44
i got shipped to iceland to a cold ocean shore
sam got shipped to italy and on to the front
i lost touch with him after a month
but i listened to the headlines on the bbc
i thought about my good friend and where he might be
i often wondered if he was alive like me
but when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as thieves
50 years later, i’m an old man
i help out with the church choir and little league when i can
i rarely think of those years of the war
and old sams memory is faded and worn
i moved on with my life, married and settled down
i’m far from that kid, in the baltimore town
we’d be different now, sam and me
but when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as thieves
i looked at my grandkids this memorial day
it took me back to those baltimore days
at 5 o’clock the telephone rang
there was quiet, then a voice did say
“hey kid, are you up for a game? dust off your cue stick the rules they are the same, i’m at the pool hall just my cigarettes and me”
but when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as thieves
when the winter wind blows again we’ll be thick as theives
