Streets Of St. Paul - Gillian Welch

There’s too much wrist at the end of each court

Too much bitter at the back of his throat

Too much winter coming after the fall

To be walking the streets of St. Paul

To be walking the streets of St. Paul

There’s too much makeup for the time of day

Too much of high heel and way too much leg

Too much of 14 underneath it all

To be walking the streets of St. Paul

To be walking the streets of St. Paul

Oh, see the little sparrow

Who’s watching?

Who’s watching?

I see the little sparrow

Too much troubles for me to shake

All this weather and blinding ache

Makes my body feel sad and small

Walking the streets of St. Paul

Walking the streets of St. Paul
