Painted Ladies Lyrics By Ian Thomas

    i remember setting out just to see what i could see
    streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high they all meant nothing to me
    no one ever looked my way or knew that i was there
    i kept walking and the rain kept raining
    until all the streets were bare

    oo feeling fine mama
    painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
    oo feeling good mama
    they took my money like i knew they would
    la la la la la la la
    la la la la la
    la la la la la la la
    la la la la la

    city lights were shining on me through my window pane
    i kept thinking bout the day when id be home again
    rocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
    i kept drinking sinking till there was nothing left of me

    oo feeling fine mama
    painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
    oo feeling good mama
    they took my money like i knew they would
    la la la la la la la
    la la la la la
    la la la la la la la
    la la la la la
