Generate meaning
1
There's a dusty old gutter he's lying in now and he's blind and he's old
2
And there's a bottle that rolls down the road
3
Me I'm young and I'm so wild
4
And I still feel the need of your apron strings once in a while
5
For there's taxi cabs hooting but I can't be foot-loose forever
6
My suitcase it's a cheap one, my darling, she's a dear one
7
My head's feeling light as a feather
8
Take my ears and tell me when the whistle blows
9
Wake me up and tell me when the whistle blows
10
Long lost and lonely boy, you're just a black sheep going home
11
I want to feel your wheels of steel underneath my itching heels
12
Take my money, tell me when the whistle blows
13
Part of me asked the young man for the time
14
With a cool vacant stare of undue concern
15
He said, "Nine" it's not so bad but I really do love the land
16
And rather all this than those diamante lovers in Hyde Park holding hands
17
Blowing heat through my fingers, trying to kill off this cold
18
Will the street kids remember, can I still shoot a fast cue
19
Has this country kid still got his soul
20
Take my ears and tell me when the whistle blows
21
Wake me up and tell me when the whistle blows
22
Long lost and lonely boy, you're just a black sheep going home
23
I want to feel your wheels of steel underneath my itching heels
24
Take my money, tell me when the whistle blows
25
Take my money, tell me when the whistle blows
