Don't need no ticket i'm not waiting on a train No i'm just standing here if so i don't have to stand in the rain If that's alright. I'll talk all night I chopped wood all morning watching the treetops in the mist And a strange woman came up next to me packing cigarettes against her wrist And i said yes - talk to the press Hey hey i didn't mind it at all This woman i loved, you know she looked me right in the eye And said i'm going to have all your children if you get me a coffee And a piece of pie And i said fine. Right on time
I walked her up to see the city lights She had me whispering in her ear Turns out she didn't know that much english, but i was listening loud and clear And i was in deep. Oh i put her to sleep But hey hey ask me why i'm walking all night long Hey hey I can't even recall I woke up in the morning with a big surprise surprise That girl was gone, i was alone with dewdrops in my eyes and i was singing Hey hey ask me why i'm walking all night long Hey hey been so many days from my old home Hey hey i can't even recall
