Crawling Up A Hill lyrics by Katie Melua

Crawling Up A Hill - Katie Melua

Intro

1. Strophe
Every morning about half past eight,
my Mama wakes me says, "Don�t be late."
Get to the office, trying to concentrate,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
So I stop one day to figure it out,
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
to sing the blues that I know about,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

1. Refrain
Minute after minute, second after second,
hour after hour goes by.
Working for a rich girl, staying just a poor girl,
never stopped to wonder why.

Bridge 1:
So here I am in London town,
a better scene, I'm gonna be around,
the kind of music that won't bring me down,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

Instrumental

3. Strophe
Every morning about half past eight,
my Mama wakes me says, "Don�t be late."
I get to the office, trying to concentrate,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
So I stop one day to figure it out,
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
to sing the blues that I know about,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

2. Refrain
Minute after minute, second after second,
hour after hour goes by.
Working for a rich girl, staying just a poor girl,
never stopped to wonder why.

Bridge: 2:
So here I am in London town,
a better scene, I'm gonna be around,
the kind of music that won't bring me down,
my life is just a slow train...
Aah ohoh!

Coda
So, so, so here I am in London town,
a better scene, I'm gonna be around,
the kind of music that won't bring me down,
my life is just a slow train crawling up a hill...
