Streets Of London (4:26)
From The Songs of Ralph McTell and 89 other releases
This song is about being homeless in London, and about how the world forgets about the people who are down and out, it just shows how the human race will stereotype the likes of tramps, not wondering, wether or not they have lead fulfilled lives, when actually one of the men in the song, appears to have served his country. Its not that hard to be down and out, especially in this day and age with the economy the way it is at present, and i think Ralph Mc Tell portrays the way of life very well in this song, and has a very soothing subtle tune to go with it.
Its a very old song, but non-the less brilliant, well done Ralph x

Have you seen the old man
In the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper,
with his worn out shoes?
