[Verse 1]

I hear you are singing a song of the past

I see no tears

I know that you know it may be the last

For many years

You'd gamble or give anything to be in with

The better half

But how many friends must I have to begin with

To make you laugh?


[Chorus]

Will you still have a song to sing

When the razor boy comes

And takes your fancy things away?

Will you still be singing it

On that cold and windy day?


[Verse 2]

You know that the coming is so close at hand

You feel alright

I guess only women in cages can stand

This kind of night

I guess only women in cages can play down

The things they lose

You think no tomorrow will come when you lay down

You can't refuse


[Chorus]

Will you still have a song to sing

When the razor boy comes

And takes your fancy things away?

Will you still be singing it

On that cold and windy day?


[Pedal Steel Solo]


[Verse 2]

I guess only women in cages can play down

The things they lose

You think no tomorrow will come when you lay down

You can't refuse


[Chorus]

Will you still have a song to sing

When the razor boy comes

And takes your fancy things away?

Will you still be singing it

On that cold and windy day?
