Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not far, I can walk
Down the block to Table Talk
I close my eyes
And make the pies all day
[Verse 2]
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 grey
[Verse 3]
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 I'm making pies
[Verse 4]
I'm making pies, making pies
[Verse 5]
Thursday nights I go and type
Down at the church for Father Mike
It gets me out
And he ain't hard to like at all
[Verse 6]
Jesus stares at me in my chair
With his big blue eyes and his honey brown hair
He's looking at me
Way up there on the wall
[Verse 7]
Did I show you this picture of my sweetheart
Taken of us before the war?
Of the Greek and his Italian girl
One Sunday at the shore
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
Five a.m., here I am
Walking the block to Table Talk
You could cry or die
Or just make pies all day
[Verse 10]
I'm making pies, making pies
I'm making pies, making pies
