The flat was cold
so I would walk around
I felt so old
but how I loved the town!
I walked so far
up and down those hills
I saw the moors
I saw the mills
I felt alone
but oh, it was so sweet
when I would walk
down Sheffield streets
The wind would blow
it really chilled your bones
a take-away
a pint of Stones
the steel gray sky
buses whizzing by
cathedral bells
the brewery smells
I felt alone
but oh, it was so sweet
when I would walk
down Sheffield streets
Glossop Road
Spital Hill
Castle Gate
the Crucible
Chapel Walk
Division Street
the Wicker and
the old Leadmill
I found a pub
and curled up like a cat
I wrote a song
on a beer mat
Nether Edge
Sharrow Vale
Oakdale Road
and Abbeydale
Hunter's Bar
Eccleshall
Barker's Pool
the Cutlers' Hall
I felt alone
but oh it was so sweet
when I would walk
down Sheffield streets
so I would walk around
I felt so old
but how I loved the town!
