about

One of the great Andrew Bergey tunes. In a perfect world, this is a hit single. I heard Mr. Bergey's version when he gave me a cassette of his latest works a couple of years earlier. It took me a while to figure it out.

Hear the original Bergey rendition here, courtesy of his fab web site (scroll down to track three):

lyrics

SWIMMING IN BLUE STREETS by A. Bergey

When the sun ain't shining
And the rain is pouring down
If you want to find me
Well, you know where I'll be found
When the clouds are hanging
And the rain is pouring down
And come Sunday morning
Well, you know where I'll be found

Chorus:
Swimming in blue streets
Keeping a line on the day
Swimming in blue streets
The night will wash me away

Drop the beat of the day
Once the rain's rhythm is found
The leaves in the gutter
Well, they are now in my sound
When the weather's hanging
Can't seem to make up its mind
It's all right to follow
Don't attempt to throw a line (Chorus)

When the leaves are falling
From the weight of the rain
Although I do get sleepy
I'm not about to complain
When the sun ain't shining
And the rain is pouring down
If you want to find me
Well, you know where I'll be found (Chorus)
