Gregg McKella Music

Lyrics

See the passengers take their seats – some are standing on their feet
Hear the movement of the train – shooting through the city
No-one says a thing – surely seems a pity
And they’re – a million miles a way from you
Watch the lady pass the time – as we hurtle on down the line
Seventeen across, twenty–three down – if only she could get out of this damn town
And she’s - a million miles a way from them
And they – just want to get closer in

Chorus
And Charlie don’t mind - he’s playing those songs to them
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
And they never know what to say – they never know what to do
Another day is over – another day is done – and all they can think of – is run run run
And they’re – a million miles away from you

He’s got his face buried in the news – she’s staring straight down at her shoes
Hear the rustle of the page – hear the silent rage – they’ll do anything at all - to escape that cage
And she’s - a million miles a way from them
And he – just wants to get closer in

Chorus

And Charlie don’t mind – he’s playing guitar again
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
And Charlie don’t mind – he’s playing those songs to them
When the hat goes round – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
And if Charlie can make them smile – if only for a little while
He’s already been and done it – plays another hit – doesn’t have to swallow – all that bullshit
And he’s – getting on down with them
Hear the music from the trains – hear it coming from the subways again
Another thirty places – another forty faces – and all Charlie did – was run run run
And he’s – getting on down with them - and they’re - getting on down with him

Chorus

And Charlie don’t mind – he’s playing guitar again – when the hat goes round – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
And Charlie don’t mind – he’s playing those songs to them – at the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
And Charlie don’t mind – he’s singing those songs to them - when the hat goes round – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again - when the hat goes round – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again - at the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again - when the hat goes round – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
At the end of the day – he’ll be hammered at the bar again
