Every morning
'bout half past eight
my mamma wakes me
says, "don't be late"
Get to the office,
tryin' to concentrate
My life is just a slow
train crawling up a hill
So I stop one day
to figure it out, I'll
Quit my job without
a shadow of a doubt
to sing the blues
that I know about
My life is just a slow
train crawling up a hill
Minute after minute
second after second
Hour after hour
goes by
Working for a rich girl
Staying just a poor girl
Never stop to
wonder why...
So here I am
in London town
A better scene I'm
gonna be around
The kind of music that
won't bring me down
My life is just a slow
train crawling up a hill

Oh no no
