Bruce Hornsby - Swing Street Lyrics
B. r. hornsbyI heard you say that tonights the nightYou say theres a party going onIm in the door lik an old 78 sideAnd I hear em out hitting on a coleman songMy friend john with a mirror and spoonGot a belt and a mainline sceneA couple getting off in the back roomSomeones collecting money for the friend in needSounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place Id like to beTheres a little crowd youre gonna want to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetNice old man in the corner boothMaking time with jive-time stuShe makes her sting neath the table blueSays shes an actor but shes hookingAs a sideline tooOh sounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place Id like to beEverybody rolls when its time to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetYou say theres nothing but bums around hereListen to the sound of the cymbal so clearCutting contest on the standSomebodys trying to blow you awayWhat makes him swing harder than you doOh better hit the woodshed for ninety daysOh sounds like a good time, a ball to meSounds like a place Id like to beTheres a little crowd youre gonna want to meetOh they got a thing going on swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetGot a good thing going down swing streetGot a thing going on on swing streetGot a thing going onGot a thing going on on swing street
