Van Morrison - The Street Only Knew Your Name Lyrics
Your street, rich street or poorYou should always be sure of your streetThere's a place in your heart,When you know from the startAnd you can't be complete without a streetKeep movin' on, just like a trainSometimes you gotta look back to the street againWould you prefer all those castles in spainOr a view of the street from your window paneWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your name, oh your precious name, precious nameThere was walter and joy, kate and royAll hung around the corner lamplightGet together sing some songsLike boppin' the blues - you make me feel alrightThat was long before fortune and fameNo such thing as a star when you've played that gameEveryone knew who everyone wasThere was no preference in the street no, noWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your name, oh your precious nameAnd you walked around in the heart of townListening for that soundAnd you walk around in the heart of townListening for that soundBlue suede shoes, it was the blue suede shoesWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngWhen you were young, so youngSo very very youngAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your nameAnd the street only knew your name
