Fred Eaglesmith - Soda Machine lyrics

rate me

Well the cans on the sidewalk

They ain't worth kickin'

The street lights are broke up

And they keep on flickerin'

You step on a crack

She ain't coming back

Even a blind man could likely see that

And these streets are empty

Except for the dark

They've locked up the gates

And closed down the parks

And the soda machine

At Charlotte and Queen

It's as empty as my heart

And the lights of the diners

Even seem brighter

When she's not there

To turn down the shine

She was right all along

The coffee's too strong

I wouldn't need any

If she was still mine

And they bandaged the windows

And stolen the cars

And the hookers on Main Street

Don't care who you are

And the soda machine

At Charlotte and Queen

It's as empty as my heart

Well I banged and I kicked it

From the front and the side

I checked to make sure

That my change was right

Oh I wasn't that thirsty

But I wasn't that smart

Cause the next thing you know

It's broken in parts

And the soda machine

At Charlotte and Queen

It's as empty as my heart
