Wildfire in Memphis |
| Wildfire in Memphis |
| Hurricane in Jacksonville |
| Blow 'way my streetwalkin' feet |
| And take me where you will |
| I walked the streets in Dallas |
| And I picked up a buck in a carriage race |
| But in the dim light of the pool halls |
| I could not see my face |
| Dear sir, I haven’t got a home |
| On these streets I live and roam |
| Please sir, take a poor boy home |
| I walk walk walk the streets all day |
| I walk walk walk the streets all night |
| I walk walk walk with my feet on fire |
| My love for hire |
| Oh, shall we retire? |
| Picked up in Hollywood |
| By a band of wealthy gypsies |
| Singing peace, love, Hare Krishna |
| Will you be a star today? |
| Have you ever played «Romance in F» |
| To the accompaniment |
| Of the earth tremblin' 'neath your feet |
| On Selma Avenue? |
| Well, in New York, I must admit, tricks are easier |
| More streets to walk at night |
| I know the name of every pick-up bar in town |
| Do you? |
| Dear sir, I haven’t got a home |
| On these streets I live and roam |
| Please sir, take a poor boy home |
| I walk walk walk the streets all day |
| I walk walk walk the streets all night |
| I walk walk walk to my destiny |
| Someday I may be a big discovery |
| I learned to love my brother |
| In a way that few folks ever will |
| But in the streets my love was tempted |
| By a twenty-dollar bill |
| Wildfire in Memphis |
| Hurricane in Jacksonville |
| Blow 'way my streetwalkin' feet |
| And take me where you will |
| Take me where you will |
