Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Day after day down Rickety Lane

I walk with myself, aware of no pain

The cartoons of life pass in review

And Rickety Lane's been traveled by few

[Verse 2]

A soldier from England so long ago came

To fight for his maiden beside the small lane

While lovers and poets record all the change

And Rickety, Rickety marred, but you're strange

[Verse 3]

A young girl sits sadly and stares at her star

She lost her brave husband last month in the war

And children are gentle and never seem blue

And Rickety Lane, what's in this for you?

[Verse 4]

Day after day down Rickety Lane

I walk with myself, aware of no pain

The cartoons of life pass in review

And Rickety Lane's been traveled by few

Rickety Lane's been traveled by few
