Winding your way down on Baker Street
Lite in your head, and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day, you drink the night away
And forget about everything

Turn it up loud, close my eyes and throw my head back and sing every single note and mimic every single instrument.. . a f t e r all these years it still gives me chills...eve r y . . . s i n g l e . . . t i m e .
To continue.... Absolutely hot guitar and sax solos, memorable melody burned into your soul, and a voice that is just too perfect for the whole thing. Nothing annoying about this song and everything desired. A fav.
Honestly, is there another song that has as much going for it than this sing? Deeply meaningful and very interesting
One of the Greats.
Great am radio music. Classic

One of my all time faves
R.i.p Gerry u will be missed thank u for making great music
I hope
Love this song!
I was interested in who did the guitar solo, since it sounded like one you could drop into a Steely Dan song. Unfortunatel y there are four of them credited, and I haven't heard of any of them before. I did find out that Raphael Ravenscroft (who played with Floyd, among others) was responsible for one of pop music's most recognizable sax parts though.

Nice song, but it feels like it should be on 1980s PBS.
This song is such a great song on so many levels. The lyrics paint such a great picture for the listener. It has a great message that says keep on trying, and yes the sax is epic!
words fail me to describe how beautiful this song is. it is one of those songs that will resonate to eternity.... t h e saxophone proves it.

Each time I listen to this one, I discover an additional nuance to appreciate. A wonderful song and artist.

RIP Gerry
whos cryin now?
great sax (did i spell that right?) ;0 aleays loved this one since it came out rofl

amen stonecutter 908; plus it makes me sad that i gave up the booze and the one night stands and now my life is even more empty than when i had the booze and the one night stands... po po pitiful me
I have always loved this song. It just touches me deeply. The best sax ever in my estimation
I love it when this song (in its original version) comes on at the grocery store or some other public place. It's amazing how many folks you hear whistling along with the sax solos. It's like it's a basic human need, to "sing" along with something this epic, even when there aren't words. Always makes me happy.
I love the fact that Lisa Simpson plays ths on an episode of the Simpsons!!
The man could pen a great song!
That sax is phenomenal.
Great Rafferty tune.

As if I needed a reason to hate the Foofighters and/or Dave Grohl, they destroyed this song.
I agree..... a masterpiece!
A masterpiece. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . t h a n k you Gerry
The saxophone makes this song.
