Valdy - Peter And Lou lyrics

rate me

Peter and Lou would skate<br />

On winter's frozen lake<br />

Circling around all their friends<br />

Laughing wherever they went.<br />

<br />

They're catching the mornin' plane<br />

And sendin' the rest by train, <br />

Hangin' their skates on the wall<br />

Takin' their turn and that's all<br />

<br />

With brushes & canvas & macrome handcrafts & Bessie Smith singin' the blues... <br />

A chorus for Peter & Lou.<br />

<br />

Now loneliness has a way<br />

Of hangin' around all day<br />

I'm standing alone on the ice<br />

I'm wonderin' if maybe they've been right<br />

<br />

So I'll catch the mornin' plane<br />

Send all the rest by train<br />

Leavin' the ice there to thaw<br />

I'm takin' my turn and that's all.<br />

<br />

And if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith singin' the blues<br />

In a chorus for Peter & Lou<br />

<br />

Oh, if I should miss them, I'll go back & listen to Bessie Smith singin' the blues<br />

In a chorus for Peter & Lou
