Shoe Shine Mamma
Spits for her money
Wants to make a living
Try to make her own
All she ever wanted was to
make her own money and
settle down on Silium`s Hill
She prayed by the water on Manitou Bay
Sipping ambrosia on a holy night
Counting the lovers that had passed her way
They could not see her on Silium`s Hill
On a frozen lamp pole I scratch her name -
With my rusty old penknife
on a empty heart
Standing by the window, is that you out there
at the Southern Cross over Silium`s Hill
Oh, baby will you ride with me
Through the wheat towns to Medicine Hat
When the cold winds blow I`ll be there
I`ll hang on tight, baby sure go for that
Now the old man knocks at my front door,
Shoe Shine Mamma isn`t here anymore
There`s a stranger in my place
looking out over Silium`s Way...
Listen to the humming of the railway cars
My hands frozen on the wheel
600 miles away from home
running on the shadow of Silium`s Hill
Somewhere back on Church Street
Shoe Shine Mamma spits for her money
Trying to make a living, wanna make her own
Down at the bottom of Silium`s Hill
