Crawling Up A Hill

1. Every morning (a)bout half past eight
My Mama wakes me says
”Don't be late”
I get to the office, tryin' to concentrate
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

So I stop one day to figure it out
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt
To sing the blues that I know about
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

Minute after minute
Second after second
Hour after hour goes by
Working for a rich girl
Staying just a poor girl
Never stop to wonder why.

[Chorus1:]
So here I am in London town
A better scene I'm gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

2. Every morning (a)bout half past eight
My Mama wakes me says
”Don't be late”
I get to the office, tryin' to concentrate
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

[Chorus2:]
So I stop one day to figure it out
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt
To sing the blues that I know about
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

[Bridge:]
Minute after minute
Second after second
Hour after hour goes by
Working for a rich girl
Staying just a poor girl
Never stop to wonder why.

[Chorus3:]
So here I am in London town
A better scene I'm gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
Life is just a slow train.

So here I am in London town
A better scene I¹m gonna be around
The kind of music that won't bring me down
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
