Lonely Mile
Rory Gallagher
It's five 'o'clock in the morning
Ain't got a dime
Standing under your window
That ain't no crime
Keeping out of the weather
Up for the dawn
Yeah I'm stealing stealing
When I should be gone
Six 'o'clock in the morning
Ain't got no prayer
Cause your never no answer
But I know your there
It's my own fault you see
It must be the wine
Got this fever, getting deeper
Until it cuts like a knife
Yeah
You've got me walking that lonely mile
Just like a child
Why you trying to act so tough
Tell me what's my crime
Yeah
Nine 'o'clock in the morning
Still no sign
Turn on the big sun
Switch down the night
Like a hand in a glove
We were partners in crime
I'm goin to leave here
Shouldn't be here
Walk down that lonely mile
