Little Feat - It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry Lyrics






Well, I ride on a mail train baby
Can't buy a thrill
Well, I been up all night, baby
Leanin' on the window sill
Well, if I die, on top of the hill
And if I don't make it
You know my baby will

Don't the moon look good
Shinin' through the trees
And don't the brakeman look good, baby
Flaggin' down the double "e"
Don't the sun look good
Goin' down over the sea
But, don't my man look fine
When he's comin' after me

Now the winter time is comin'
The windows are filled with frost
I went to tell everybody
But, I could not get across
Well, I want to be your lover, baby
I don't to be your boss
Don't say I never warned you
When your train gets lost

    Lowell would be proud. AND let us not forget Shaun's Cadillac Hotel!

  4. J.... R....

    Unfreakin believable ! Best version of this Dylan song I ever heard.

    Some of the most tasteful simple guitar back ground licks I have ever heard...... What a voice...

  11. Y.... L....

    Very very very nice interpretation of this classic. Great vocals. Great everything!

    Y.... L....

    Great comment too.

  12. F.... B....

    Woa! Fabulous version. Bluesiest ever. Bet Dylan loves hearing what can be done with his most excellent song. Ms Murphy, Shaun Murphy, astonishing voice.  Piano terrific as well. All the instruments are wonderful.

  13. �.... ....

    What a blues!
    Oh kill me

  14. J.... ....

    Blues. Don't get no more authentic than this. GODDAM.

    J.... ....

    Just finished Fong Torres' Feat bio - according to him some members didn't dig Murphy covering this track. I spotted at least a couple errors in the book sure hope that another of them I mean this thing is every bit as down & dirty as 44 Blues on the debut and that take is classic. Gotta believe Lowell woulda been bowled over by this.

  15. c.... ....

    as Alexis Korner once said on his radio show back in the day "one of the last great headbands".  

    c.... ....

    +crazymanmichael100 Alexis Korner - such respect for that great guy. Happy memories.

  16. c.... ....

    the feat can still don't fail.

    I'm gonna sell everything, and fill my pockets with gold, so I can FIND that woman before I'm too old !!
