Chris Rea - Maxwell Street lyrics

Will you tell me mister How did I end up here? Oh, won't you tell me mister How did I end up here? I got a dollar for my trouble And nothing for may fear Oh, won't you tell me mister preacher How did I end up this way? Oh, won't you tell me mister preacher How did I end up this way? So cold and hungry down on Maxwell And the blues tear came to stay Well they told me I remember This new life would be so cool Oh, they told me I remember This new life would be so cool Now I'm standing here on Maxwell Feeling like the biggest fool Oh, my cousin caught the Greyhound And my best friend jumped a train Yeah, my cousin caught the Greyhound Yeah, my best friend jumped a train Now if I ever pull a big one Maxwell won't see my face again Oh maxwell If I ever pull a big one No you won't see my face again
