Downtown |
Downtown people gotta work a little harder working downtown |
Downtown they got to think a little quicker 'cause they’re downtown |
Downtown the breaks are harder |
Downtown the thieves are smarter |
I’ve got this place I’m renting |
It cost me next to nothing downtown |
Nobody comes around telling me I gotta turn the sound down |
Broadway -- down on the corner |
The bible screamer, the plasma donor |
Buses, carhorns, ghetto blasters |
The shouts and cries of the human disasters |
It’s all music |
It’s all music |
Downtown |
It’s all music |
It’s all music |
I feel alright when I’m downtown |
My feet are light when I’m downtown |
I cast my hopes on the human tide |
I place my bet and let it ride |
I’m open wide when I’m downtown |
Downtown there’s every kind of people walkin' round downtown |
Downtown there’s every language, every human sound downtown |
Downtown the nights are longer |
Downtown the sights are stronger |
Downtown wandering all around downtown |
It’s all music |
Eight blocks south of city hall |
The rats run free and the winos crawl |
Darkness falls on the vast machine |
Where the future stalks the American dream |
I feel alright when I’m downtown |
My head feels light when I’m downtown |
It’s all in sight when I’m downtown |
I feel alright when I’m downtown |
