Mary Chapin Carpenter - Grand Central Station Lyrics

Send "Grand Central Station" ringtone to your cell

Got my work clothes on for love sweat and dirt.

All this holy dust upon my face an' shirt.

Headin' uptown now just as the shifts are changin'

To grand central station.

I got my lunch box got my hard hat in my hand.

I ain't no hero mister just a workin' man.

An' all these voices keep on askin' me to take them

To grand central station.

Grand central station.

I wanna stand beneath the clock just one more time.

Wanna wait on the platform for the hudson line.

I guess you're never really all alone or too far from the pull of home

An' the stars upon that painted dome still shine.

I paid my way out on the 42nd street.

I lit a cigarette an' stared down at my feet.

Imagined all the ones that ever stood here waitin'

At grand central station.

Grand central station.

And now hercules is starin' down at me.

Next to him's minerva an' mercury.

Well i nod to them an' start my crawl flyers coverin' every wall:

Faces of the missing are all i see.

Tomorrow i'll be back there workin' on the pile.

Going in comin' out single file.

Before my job is done there's one more trip i'm makin'

To grand central station.

Grand central station.

Grand central station.

Grand central station.
