| [00:03.22] |
Third-Class ticket in his pocket |
| [00:08.37] |
Punching out the shadows underneath the sockets |
| [00:11.61] |
Tweed coat turned up against the fog |
| [00:15.33] |
Slow coaches rolling o'er the moor |
| [00:17.88] |
Between the very memory |
| [00:20.05] |
And approaches of war |
| [00:23.97] |
Stale bread curling on a luncheon counter |
| [00:28.07] |
Loose change lonely, not the right amount |
| [00:32.00] |
Forgotten Man of an |
| [00:33.78] |
indifferent nation |
| [00:36.21] |
Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station |
| [00:41.22] |
Somebody's calling you again |
| [00:44.23] |
The sky is falling |
| [00:45.94] |
Jimmie's standing in the rain |
| [00:51.28] |
Nobody wants to buy a counterfeited prairie lullaby in a colliery town |
| [01:00.61] |
A hip flask and fumbled skein with |
| [01:03.81] |
some stagedoor Josephine is all |
| [01:06.67] |
he'll get now |
| [01:09.68] |
Eyes going in and out of focus |
| [01:12.74] |
Mild and bitter from tuberculosis |
| [01:16.48] |
Forgotten Man |
| [01:18.66] |
Indifferent nation |
| [01:21.15] |
Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station |
| [01:26.22] |
Somebody's calling you again |
| [01:29.14] |
The sky is falling |
| [01:30.95] |
Jimmie's standing in the rain |
| [01:41.31] |
Her soft breath was gentle on his neck |
| [01:45.95] |
If he could choose the time to die |
| [01:50.90] |
Then he would come and go like this |
| [01:55.91] |
Underneath a painted sky |
| [02:00.94] |
She woke up and called him "Charlie" by mistake |
| [02:05.68] |
And then in shame began to cry |
| [02:10.90] |
Tarnished silver band peals off a phrase |
| [02:15.20] |
And then warms their hands around the brazier |
| [02:20.29] |
Forgotten Man |
| [02:22.46] |
Indifferent nation |
| [02:25.05] |
Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station |
| [02:30.05] |
Somebody's calling you again |
| [02:33.09] |
It's finally dawning |
| [02:34.90] |
Jimmie's standing in the rain |
| [02:45.35] |
Brilliantine glistening |
| [02:49.69] |
Your soft plaintive whistling |
| [02:53.55] |
And your wan wandering smile |
| [02:59.77] |
Died down at The Hippodrome |
| [03:02.49] |
Now you're walking off to jeers, |
| [03:05.22] |
the lonely sound of jingling spurs, |
| [03:08.46] |
the "toodle-oos" and "Oh, my dears" |
| [03:13.00] |
down at "The Argyle" |
| [03:17.86] |
Vile vaudevillians applaud sobriety |
| [03:21.49] |
There's no place for a half-cut |
| [03:24.41] |
cowboy in polite society |
| [03:27.46] |
Forgotten Man |
| [03:29.33] |
Indifferent nation |
| [03:32.05] |
Waiting on a platform at a Lancashire station |
| [03:36.96] |
Somebody's calling you again |
| [03:39.99] |
It's finally dawning Jimmie's standing in the rain |
