Streets Of London

主唱：Albert Au 區瑞強
written by Ralph McTell


Have you seen the old man in the closed-down market
Kicking up the paper with his worn out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride
Hand held loosely at his side
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news

*So how can you tell me you're lonely
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
She's no time for talking
She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags (*)

In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven
Same old man is sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his tea-cup
Each tea lasts an hour
Then he wanders home alone (*)

Have you seen the old man outside the Seaman's Mission
Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears
In our winter city, the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care

What version is this? I've been trying to find this. Excellent video by the way.

sung by a hongkong legend folk singer Albert Au.

Lovely version. The girl with the pearls on the far right of the scooter at (roughly) 2:09 is Gorgeous. I wonder whatever happened to her???

Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!

Do any of you know if Albert Au sings this fine song in a Cantonese version as well?

And if so, what is the title?

Thank you in advance ;-)

[GARYMOORE1952no1fan]

great tune reminds me of my mum, she was on in Brixton in 1925

[StarTeardrops17]

i used to have to sing this in school but it was this version not the one that doesnt mention london

[Georgiahulse]

We used to sing this at school in hymns, but the version I sang never had any mention of London. It was a more religious version - anyone know the name of it?

Powerful vid by the way, the pictures aren't just random black and whites either; they actually tie in with the words.
