Crawling Up a Hill Lyrics
Every morning (a)bout half past eight,
My Mummer wakes me says,
"Don't be late",
Get to the office, tryin' to concentrate,
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
So I stop one day to figure it out,
I'll quit my job without a shadow of a doubt,
To sing the blues that I know about,
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.
Minute after minute,
Second after second,
Hour after hour goes by,
Working for a rich girl,
Staying just a poor girl,
Never stop to wonder why.
So here I am in London town,
A better scene Iüm gonna be around,
The kind of music that won't bring me down,
My life is just a slow train crawling up a hill.

A more upbeat song on an album of mellowness. Katie released this as a single earlier in the year but didn't do very well. I think Faraway Voice or Belfast would've been better songs to release as a single.
this is the song i sing to my self while at work thinking of the day that i will be sitting on stage with katie playing my guitar as she sings.
That is scary and stalkerish 0_0
I really like this song. I don't understand why people don't seem to like this as much, but I guess it is just personal taste. I recently left a horrible jub. This song seemed to describe it perfectly!
did John Mayall do this song before her?
@led_zeppelin_xxx Yes.
