Judey On A Street Lyrics - Okkervil River

All day I'm gonna hit on the drum 

Takes a little time for her to come 

You're just a girl on a street 

Ah, take it away 

Walk around, what d'you say? 

That how the whole world sadly sung 

While you were wishing you were young 

You're just a girl on a street 

The snow it softly falls outside 

And you're watching it, spacing out 

And you're lying on your side 

You wanna get involved in prayer 

As for the church, you don't know where 

You're just a girl on a street 

You're just a girl on a street

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

With your hair going gray 

Eyes like greenish macramé 

Hey, the record goes like... 

I drove in my new sedan 

Rain hit my windshield like an open hand 

I headed north in a haze of speed 

I knew exactly what we need 

I stood in a church with a shield on the sign 

The smell of incense in the aisles 

I felt like a giant spinning wheel 

And I know how the minister must feel 

And when his wife takes off her gown 

And then she lets her long hair down 

Lit by the world that's going round 

She's just a girl on a street 

She's just a girl on a street 

She's just a girl

Once I died in a dream 

And the world without me went fine 

And then years went by 

Take me to that city in the sky 

The clouds are aquamarine 

The architect remains unseen 

I'll live my life out on your street 

Up where the bluebirds fly 

Help me to the other side 

Help me to the other side 

Help me to the other side 

Help me to the other side 

Help me to the other side 

Help me to the other side 

And when I get to the other side 

I'll give those harp strings a strum 

I'm gonna hit on that drum 

I'm gonna wait for my girl to come 

You know it takes a little time
