Last Tango On 16th Street |
Selling late night transfers, try to make a play |
The people with the answers don’t often pass this way |
Starting from Dolores all the way to Three |
It’s the last tango on 16th Street |
The later that it gets, the meaner that it looks |
There’s a lot to learn out here not found in books |
We gotta solve the winter rain, watch out for the heat |
When it’s the last tango on 16th Street |
Same old people begging quarters, stretching out their hands |
Vendors selling flores from a plastic can |
Some are poor but honest, others lie and cheat |
Well, it’s the last tango on 16th Street |
All the homeless helpless need a place to stay |
Asking you for spare change, don’t know what to say |
Gypsy plays a melody, a broken tooth, just smile so sweet |
At the last tango on 16th Street |
Same old song, I know you heard it many times before |
Why this life in poverty seems so much like a war |
Just make sure you’re careful where you place your feet |
When it’s the last tango on 16th Street |
Some of them don’t see so good when they leave the bars |
Talking loud and ugly, step in front of cars |
If you’re holding valuables it pays to be discrete |
'Cause it’s the last tango on 16th Street |
Dodge between the hookers, aim between their thighs |
Full moon shines above the bay, you can see it in their eyes |
Past the Capp Street dogleg, your heart might skip a beat |
When it’s the last tango on 16th Street |
It’s the last tango on 16th Street |
It’s the last tango on 16th Street |
It’s the last tango on 16th Street |
