about
"Street Lamps" is the lead single from Brian Paddock's debut solo album, "Under New Management".
lyrics
Dropped a dime and two nickels in his paper cup
He said, "God Bless you, Son", without looking up
A German Shepard dog layin at his feet
Looks like they've both found the end of their leash
Oh no, Oh man
Some things you can change,
Some things you can't
A Desert Storm hat and gray in his beard
Recruiting posters don't show pictures from here
Scythe street lamps cut the dusk with light
it's warm right now but it''ll get cold tonight
chorus
Saw him again today on the morning news
he died last night on the street around two
The innocence of youth, drowns in shame
I've spent thirty seven years learning to look away
chorus x2
