Talking To Pylons Lyrics

Been talking to pylons,
About how to make friends,
Felt a funny connection,
So I shared a few words,
He said “Go to the river side”,
I should find a few there,
But then he asked if I’d stay a while,
Said it would sure make his day,
He said it’s sure nice to see your face,
No one comes here no more,
Thanks for staying and talking a while,
It’s hard - to find - a friend.

[Group chant] La-la l-la-la-la la-la l-la-laaaaaa …
&
[Solo whistle for a minute or so.]

So I went to the riverside, Amongst cranes and the piers,
And I thought for the first time,
I could settle down here,
I played pool at the shipyard,
With all the new friends I’d made,
I play cards at the quayside,
With battered old wave,
First I’ll make the trip home,
Back to see my old friend,
See I promised to visit sometimes,
So this wont be the end,
He said I’ll be right here when you need me,
I ain’t going nowhere,
Thanks for dropping by it was a gas,
Its hard - to find - a friend. [x2]
