Donnie Iris - Back On The Streets Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I dig the sound of the old street cars
  • Hooker's perfume and the shabby bars
  • That old cop who busted me
  • Never forgot my name
  • I dig the summer and the sticky sheets
  • The traffic and the litter and the jukebox beats
  • The night winds stir the old ghosts
  • And they haunt those less likely
  • They cry out loud and sound their warning
  • Your legends won't survive the morning light
  • They try
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets
  • Now over in the corner stands Louie's Bar
  • The names have all been changed
  • And Louie's pictures in the frame
  • Back on the streets
  • He's in the hall of fame
  • So there you have your legends boy
  • Agnes lives alone on 42nd street
  • Badgered by a fat man's memory
  • Back on the streets
  • She won't get too far
  • Gettin' riddled in the dark
  • She cry's out loud and sounds a warning
  • Her memory won't survive the morning light
  • Oh but she tries
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets
  • In a world that's sometimes cold
  • Where all is bought and sold
  • Like clothes we outgrow
  • Oh love is patient and it's kind
  • It never looks behind
  • Or changes its mind
  • Oh but they try
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets
  • They die
  • Oh how they lie
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets they die
  • Oh how they try
  • Back on the streets
  • Back on the streets
  • They lie they lie they lie they lie
