[00:00.70]Written by:Ralph McTell
[00:14.59]Have you seen the old man
[00:17.88]In the closed down market
[00:21.71]Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
[00:27.97]In his eyes you see no pride
[00:31.01]Hands held loosely at his side
[00:34.92]Yesterdays paper telling yesterday's news
[00:41.77]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[00:49.33]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[00:55.39]Let me take you by the hand
[00:58.47]And lead you through the streets of london
[01:02.54]I'll show you something
[01:04.65]To make you change your mind
[01:13.82]Have you seen the old girl
[01:16.38]Who walks the streets of london
[01:19.95]Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
[01:26.44]She has no time for talking
[01:29.43]She just keeps right on walking
[01:33.30]Carrying her home in two carrier bags
[01:40.67]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[01:47.91]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[01:53.57]Let me take you by the hand
[01:57.21]And lead you through the streets of london
[02:01.19]I'll show you something
[02:03.75]To make you change your mind
[02:18.40]In the old night cafe
[02:21.32]At a quarter past eleven
[02:25.59]The same old man
[02:27.55]Sitting there on his own
[02:31.37]Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
[02:37.87]Each tea lasts an hour
[02:40.71]And he wanders home alone
[02:45.71]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[02:52.63]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[02:58.71]Let me take you by the hand
[03:02.02]And lead you through the streets of london
[03:05.90]I'll show you something
[03:08.32]To make you change your mind
[03:23.07]Have you seen the old man
[03:26.00]Outside the seaman's mission
[03:29.59]memory fading with
[03:32.34]The medal ribbons that he wears
[03:36.09]In our winter city
[03:39.22]The rain cries a little pity
[03:42.20]For one more forgotten hero
[03:45.35]And a world that doesn't care
[03:50.23]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[03:57.53]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[04:03.58]Let me take you by the hand
[04:06.68]And lead you through the streets of london
[04:10.94]I'll show you something
[04:13.34]To make you change your mind
