Lyrics James Reyne – Lion In The Winter
Text:
Living on the highway
Way outside of town
The lean to it is leaning
Bent and broken down
Got myself a hunting rifle
A hunchback in my head
Double barrelled misty morning
When I get out of bed
A hunchback in my head
Double barrelled misty morning
When I get out of bed
A lion in the Winter
A fool in love in Spring
Though I’m just your whipping boy
Don’t mean a goddamn thing
I know the streets of this town
Are full of famous TV stars
So elegant and talented
They’re taking sleigh rides in their cars
Talk to Willy Loman
Arthur Miller’s in his bed
Dreams of retribution
Dancing in his head
I know I gave up drinking
But I’m on this beach tonight
A 6 pack and a cigarette
Well I don’t feel so good just yet
Living on the highway
Way outside of town
The lean to it is leaning
Bent and broken down
Living on the highway
Bent and broken down
A lion in the Winter
