Blue Wings Songtext
von Paul Reddick

Long it was a weary way
Won′t you go and stroll with me?
Well, little by little and words by words
Some pleasure to see

Mary wore a red dress, a red dress, a red dress
Oh, with thoughts that grew by night
But a train is coming and it's never late
Hold me tight


Oh, let this world go where she will
So full of sweet surprise
Well, the train it sings upon blue wings
Dark advice, oh

Sugar bird, don′t you weep no more
Sugar bird, no, weep no more
Round and round, round and round we go

Who passes by when I'm gone?
With their hands all wet from the dew of flowers
Oh, try to live with trousers
Roads in love with the minutes are like the hours

See yonder sun, how steady she run
I'm going home on the morning train
With the sing-song girls
Ringing in the dawn, the color of flame
