东 – 西

On the train

I met an old friend

Who used to be a farmer

He was sitting

In the buffet car

And he laughed when he saw me

In my old boots and shredded jeans

And I laughed to see him

In his new suit and tie

I told him

That I had a hard seat

And he told me

That he had a bed

As we sat there

Drinking talking

Passing the time together

East going West

West going East
