van morrison - cleaning windows (live) lyrics

[verse 1]
oh, the smell of the bakery from across the street
got in my nose
as we carried our ladders down the street
with the wrought+iron gate rows
i went home and listened to jimmie rodgers
in my lunch break
bought five woodbines at the shop on the corner
and went straight back to work

[verse 2]
oh, sam was up on top
i was on the bottom with the v
went for lemonade and paris buns
at the shop and broke for tea
i collected from the lady
and i cleaned the fanlight inside+out
oh, i was blowing saxophone on the weekеnd
in that down joint
[chorus]
what’s my line?
i’m happy cleaning windows
well, i takе my time
i’ll see you when my love grows
baby, don’t let it slide
i’m a working man in my prime
when i’m cleaning windows

[guitar solo]

[verse 3]
i heard leadbelly and blind lemon
on the street where i was born
sonny terry and brownie mcghee
muddy waters singin’ “i’m a rolling stone”
i went home
read my christmas humphreys’ book on zen
curiosity k!lled the cat
kerouac’s “dharma bums” and “on the road”

[chorus]
tell me, what’s my line?
i’m happy cleaning windows
well, i take my time
i’ll see you when my love grows
baby, don’t let it slide
i’m a working man in my prime
when i’m cleaning windows
say it again
what’s my line?
i’m happy cleaning windows
well, i take my time
i’ll see you when my love grows
baby, don’t let it slide
i’m a working man in my prime
when i’m (cleaning windows)
[outro]
when i’m
when i’m (cleaning windows)
when i’m cleaning
cleaning windows
when i’m cleaning windows
just find her a [?] on a 3+d [?] windowsill
[?], better hurry up
if we don’t get finished, we have to go down on the [?]
cleaning windows
cleaning windows
