Inside Story - Georgie Fame

City light signs gleaming

Rain swept black wet street

Endless nights of dreaming

Sleeping on my feet

Inside people talk about how to make money

Inside sickness burning away at my mind

Why me what am I born lost taking a beating

Where's that prodigal cop that's mine to be frightened

Can anybody hear me

The whores are moving in

And I don't want to be afraid

City morning coming

Someone stopped the rain

Children shouting running

Inside people think about nothing but dying

Inside laughter tickles at the back of my throat

Sometime yesterday that's the time to be crying

Rains gone so have I somebody read this note
