james last - washington square lyrics
cape cod light to mississip, to san francisco bay, they’re talking ’bout this famous place, down greenwich village way.
so i got my banjo out, just sittin’ catchin’ dust, and painted right across the face “greenwich village or bust.” my folks were sad to see me go, but i got no meanin’ there. so said “goodbye, kansas, mo, and h-llo, washington square!”
tennessee, i met a guy who played 12-string guitar. he also had a mighty voice, not to mention a car. each time he hit those bluegr-ss chords, you sure smelled mountain air. i said, “don’t waste it on the wind. come on to washington square.”
she sang for all humanity, this gal with raven hair. i said, “it’s for the world to hear. c’mon to washington square.”
cannonballed into new york on good old us 1, till up ahead we saw the arch, a-gleamin’ bright in the sun.
so how’s about a freedom song, or the old rock island line? or how’s about the dust-bowl crop, or men who work in a mine?
