Lyrics for Cleaning Windows by Van Morrison:
| | | Artist: | Van Morrison |
| | Album: | Beautiful Vision | | Track: | Cleaning Windows | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 267 | | | | Lyrics: | Oh, the smell of the bakery from across the street
Got in my nose
As we carried our
ladders down the street
With the wrought-iron gate rows
I went home and listened to Jimmie
Rodgers in my lunch-break
Bought five Woodbines at the shop on the corner
And went
straight back to work.
Oh, Sam was up on top
And I was on the bottom with the v
We
went for lemonade and Paris buns
At the shop and broke for tea
I collected from the lady
And I cleaned the fanlight inside-out
I was blowing saxophone on the weekend
In that
down joint.
What's my line?
I'm happy cleaning windows
Take my time
I'll
see you when my love grows
Baby don't let it slide
I'm a working man in my
prime
Cleaning windows (number a hundred and thirty-six)
I heard Leadbelly and
Blind Lemon
On the street where I was born
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters
singin' I'm A Rolling Stone
I went home and read my Christmas Humphreys' book on
Zen
Curiosity killed the cat
Kerouac's Dharma Bums and On The Road
What's my
line?
I'm happy cleaning windows
Take my time
I'll see you when my love
grows
Baby don't let it slide
I'm a working man in my prime
