Joe Harper Saturday Morning

When ya thought I was a stranger

When you looked upon me

When I came back

But to take you from disaster

I cannot master the four winds in your shack

In the roamin', in the gloamin'

You have brought and set before me

And I think that it's an omen

I'm just not what so many people see

Chorus:

And you shined your glory all around

Do not disguise what we did

I asked you for half a pound and you said

'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'

'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'

And the child held a ball

In the garden with the old queen

And ya kissed her lips and heart

Another stranger, ya know what I mean

And ya walked the streets so lonely

In your own childish way

And ya thought that ya would only, ha

Do it for today

Chorus

And just stood outside the club

And the rain came down on his head

And he got all soakin' wet

He said 'go for yourself'

And I said 'I know'

'Show Joe I ain't conquered yet'

And I walked away from the backstreets in the rain

And I saw how many times I had died

Then we turned on outside the bus shelter

And i jumped on and said 'good bye'

And I shined my glory all around

Did not disguise what I did

Tried to keep it underground

But they said

'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'

'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'
