you take the skyway high above the busy little one way in my stupid hat and gloves at night i lie awake wondering about sleep wondering if we ll meet out in the street do you take the skyway it don t move at all like a subway it s got bums when it s cold like any other place it s warm up inside sitting down and waiting for a ride beneath the skyway oh then one day i saw you walking down that little one way well the place i catch my ride most every day wasn t a damn thing i could do or say up in the skyway the skyway skyway
