Verse
Dm7
There's a dusty old gutter, he's lying in now.
Umm, he's blind and he's old.
G A7 Dm7
And there's a bottle that rolled down the road.
Dm7
Me I'm young, and I'm so wild - and I still feel the need
G A Bm
of your apron strings once in a while.
A E G Dm7
For there's taxicabs hooting, but I can't be footloose forever.
A E
My suitcase it's a cheap one. My darling she's a dear one.
G7 C
My head's feeling light as a feather.
Chorus

Take my ears and tell me when the whistle blows.

Wake me up and tell me when the whistle blows.
Dm A Bm G
Long lost and lonely boy you're just a black sheep going home.
D A G7 D A G G7
I want to feel your wheels of steel - underneath my itching heels.

Guitar
Dm7
Part of me asked the young man for the time
G A7 Dm7
With a cool vacant stare - of undue concern he said, "Nine".
Dm7
It's not so bad but I really do love the land.
Dm7 G A Bm
And rather all this than those diamante lovers in Hyde Park holding hands.
A E G7 Dm7
Blowing heat through my fingers trying to k**l off this cold.
A E
Will the street kids remember? Can I still shoot a fast cue?
G7 C
Has this country kid still got his soul?
