Grand Central Station, March 18, 1977 Songtext
.Grand Central Station wheels and it deals,
The crowds rush and scramble,
Round past the newsstands and out across the floors
And I did some singing,
And I played guitar, down near a doorway,
Howling out words and banging out chords.
{Soc}
Well, think what you will,
Laugh if you like, it don′t make no difference to me.
I'll open my case, and I might catch a coin,
But all ears may listen for free
Big clocks were tickin′, trains came and went, ]sad, ragged figures
]Limped in the hallways and dug through the trash
While old folks and young folks, passed in a flood, on dashing somewhere,
Wrapped in their lives and gone in a flash
Well, a man came a talkin',
He stopped where I stood. He warned me so gravely,
'The cops here′ll nab ya,
Boy and they′ll ]take ya right on down,' yes, but
I took my]chances, and luck saw me through, I s]tayed until I′d finis]ed,
Played what I pleased and poured out my sound
The crowds rush and scramble,
Round past the newsstands and out across the floors
And I did some singing,
And I played guitar, down near a doorway,
Howling out words and banging out chords.
{Soc}

While old folks and young folks, passed in a flood, on dashing somewhere,
Wrapped in their lives and gone in a flash
Well, a man came a talkin',
