It's not far
I can walk
Down the block
To Table Talk
Close my eyes
Make the pies all day
Plastic cap
on my hair
I used to mind
Now I don't care
I used to mind
Now I don't care
Cause I'm gray
Did I show you this picture of my nephew
Taken at his big birthday surprise
At my sister's house last Sunday
This is Monday and we're making pies
I'm making pies
Making pies
Pies
2nd verse
Thursday nights
I go and type
Down at the church
With Father Mike
It gets me out
And he ain't hard to like
At all
Jesus stares at me
In my chair
With his big blue eyes
And his honey brown hair
And he's looking at me
Way up there
On the wall
Did I show you this picture of my sweetheart
Taken of us before the war
Of the Greek and this Italian girl
One Sunday at the shore
We tied our ribbons to the fire escape
They were taken by the birds
Who flew home to the country
As the bombs rained on the world
3rd verse
5am
Here I am
Walking the block
To Table Talk
You could cry or die
Or just make pies all day
I'm making pies
Making pies
Making pies
Making pies
ahaa, ahaa, ahaa
ahaa, ahaa, ahaa
end on: Em
