Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You take the skyway
High above the busy little one way
In my stupid hat and gloves
At night I lie awake
Wonderin' if I'll sleep
Wonderin' if we'll meet out in the street
[Verse 2]
But you take the skyway
It don't move at all like a subway
It's got bums when it's cold, like any other place
It's warm up inside
Sittin' down and waitin' for a ride
Beneath the skyway
[Verse 3]
Oh, then one day
I saw you walkin' down that little one way
Where the place I'd catch my ride, most everyday
There wasn't a damn thing I could do or say
Up in the skyway
[Verse 4]
In skyway
Skyway
