《Gaslite Street》歌词

[00:00:00] Gaslite Street - Herman's Hermits

[00:00:01] Written by：Derek Leckenby/Keith Hopwood

[00:00:09] There's a place on the edge of town

[00:00:12] Edge of town

[00:00:13] Where the kids all hang around

[00:00:16] Hang around

[00:00:17] Cobbled streets and terraced houses

[00:00:21] Window boxes all around is it

[00:00:25] It's never changed in sixty years

[00:00:28] And it's tumbling down

[00:00:33] It's never really known by name

[00:00:36] It's called Gaslight street

[00:00:39] Gaslight street

[00:00:45] In the evening when the sun goes down

[00:00:48] Goes down

[00:00:49] And there ain't nobody else around

[00:00:52] Else around

[00:00:53] The lamp lighter walks down the street

[00:00:57] Illumination indiscreet

[00:01:01] It doesn't have much effect it seems

[00:01:04] He's wasting his time

[00:01:09] The lamp light don't shine so bright

[00:01:12] On Gaslight street

[00:01:15] Gaslight street

[00:01:20] Every night at nine

[00:01:23] There's children playing around the street

[00:01:28] Trying to dodge their parents

[00:01:31] When they call them in

[00:01:34] To go to sleep

[00:01:41] Monday morning and as a rule

[00:01:44] As a rule

[00:01:45] The place is quiet they're all at school

[00:01:48] All at school

[00:01:49] Lines of washing hang across the street

[00:01:53] A weary policeman

[00:01:55] Walks his beat

[00:01:57] It's never changed in sixty years

[00:02:00] And it's tumbling down

[00:02:05] It's never really known by name

[00:02:08] It's called Gaslight street

[00:02:11] Gaslight street
