a cold pittsburgh morning - sammy walker lyrics

Loading...

the city streets were jammed, every bar in town was crammed
on a cold pittsburg morning
glory at its most extreme, hysteria for a footbal team
a*raving

down the street a ways, hid behind the plaster walls
of on old beat*up apartment
sophia eizer lived alone, no neighbour friends or telephone
to aid her

born seventy years ago, she has felt the cold and seen the snow
a*blowing through the tree tops
but sophia was much younger then, the sweetness of her mandolines
a*tw*nging

now in this day and time it’s almost come to be a crime
to be old in this here country
feeding on descrepit health to fatten up the purse of wealth
god knows it

sophia shut the windows tight to face the horrid winter’s night
with no more warmth to greet her
five months since she paid her bill, a gentle voice beyond the hill
is calling

sleeping in a bed of rags, old cut*up rugs and paperbacks
the sun’s a*slowly rising
beneath a cloud of frozen breath, sophia eizer froze to death
this morning
the city streets are bare, the smoke stinks in the air
on a cold pittsburg morning
while blowing off the steam, they’ll rave about their team
again tomorrow
