Christmas Time In The City - Mary Chapin Carpenter[00:00:00]

Well I walked to town in the pouring rain[00:00:14]

Paid my fare and I rode that train[00:00:17]

To the station under the avenue[00:00:21]

Hit the air at the stroke of noon[00:00:24]

At the cross streets where I staked my claim[00:00:28]

I played in tune with the winter rain[00:00:31]

Collecting dimes and dollar bills[00:00:35]

While the noisy traffic played the fills[00:00:38]

And its Christmas time in the city[00:00:41]

When the air is filled with cheer[00:00:45]

And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year[00:00:48]

Well the vendors huddled and the taxis honked[00:00:59]

As I played for change beneath the neon clock[00:01:02]

Was dressed up looking like a Christmas tree[00:01:05]

Blinking down on that busy street[00:01:09]

When the crowd thinned out and the rain had quit[00:01:12]

And my fingers felt cold and stiff[00:01:15]

I took their money and I closed my case[00:01:19]

And I headed back towards home again[00:01:23]

And its Christmas time in the city[00:01:26]

When the air is filled with cheer[00:01:29]

And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year[00:01:33]

As I walked back to the subway stairs[00:02:01]

I had twenty eight dollars in change for fare[00:02:03]

There was an old bag lady with an outstretched hand[00:02:07]

And a small Salvation Army band[00:02:10]

Playing Angels We Have Heard on High[00:02:14]

The First Noel and O Holy Night[00:02:17]

I folded up one dollar bill[00:02:21]

And I tucked it down into the till[00:02:24]

And its Christmas time in the city[00:02:27]

When the air is filled with cheer[00:02:31]

And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year[00:02:34]

And its Christmas time in the city[00:02:41]

When the air is filled with cheer[00:02:45]

And the storefronts look this pretty only once a year[00:02:48]

And its Christmas time in the city[00:03:09]
