Steve Goodman Whispering Man Lyrics

You've got your helicopters, jet planes
Code-A-Phones and saxophones and jackhammers
Poundin' on the concrete city streets
Gigolos and stereos, televised scenarios of fire
Alarms and burglar alarms
You feel just like a victim in a video game
Where can you turn?
Who's gonna understand?
He's the whispering man

You've got your fast talkers. hard sellers
Door-to-door religion peddlers
Street corner hotdog vendors, palm readers
Choosy beggars, doomsayers, soothsayers
All three card monty players
Hey baby can you call back later!
All the circuits are busy right now
What can you do when it all gets out of hand!

Call the whispering man
If you're feeling sad and lonely
Don't become the one and only (whispering man) If you need someone to hold you when your senses
Overload (whispering man)
Shhh, listen
When you hear the sound of your own heart
Beating on a cold winter's night like this
That's the whispering man (If you're feeling sad and lonely
Don't become the one and only whispering man)

When you hear the sound of your own heart
Beating on a cold winter's night like this
That's the whispering man (If you're feeling sad and lonely
Don't become the one and only whispering man)

When you hear the sound of your own heart
Beating on a cold winter's night like this
That's the whispering man (If you're feeling sad and lonely
Don't become the one and only whispering man)
