Subway To The Country Songtext
Coney Island is not a place to look for starfish Or to find yourself a 15 colored stone That you can carry in your pocket till you're grown Ah there just aren't any subways to the country But your daddy he's gonna try If I ever get three bucks together I'm gonna buy Three tickets on a train and I'll show you the way I will carry you through peach smelling rain One boy to a shoulder Hey, we better go quick before we get older Central Park is not a place to watch the sunrise Or to look for red skin writing in a cave Or even find the kind of frogs you'd like to save Hey, I wish we had a subway to the country New York city is a town too big for children Where there's so much dirt they think that snow is gray And you have to watch their childhoods waist away Hey, we've got to find a subway to the country Or anywhere But your daddy he's gonna try If I ever get three bucks together I'm gonna buy Three tickets on a train and I'll show you the way I will carry you through peach smelling rain One boy to a shoulder Hey, we better go quick before we get older
