|
There's a place |
|
I know called |
|
Swing Street |
|
Where you can really feel the heartbeat |
|
After working hard til sundown |
|
The city comes alive |
|
High up, low down, down on |
|
Swing Street |
|
Gypsy jazzmen tickling my feet |
|
Jive and music, love and money |
|
There's enough to get you high |
|
Sidewalk preachers hustling bibles |
|
Longing for one more revival |
|
There's a truth in all these dreamers |
|
If you read between the lines |
|
Well, it's all right watching the world come together |
|
A real life movie that goes on forever |
|
Take your chances and pull on the lever |
|
Down on Swing |
|
Street Down on |
|
Swing Street |
|
Morning comes, that alarm clock screaming |
|
Coat and tie, and wheeling, dealing |
|
I wish that |
|
I could be back on |
|
Swing Street |
|
Watching life roll by |
|
Everyone looks for romance |
|
Living out of magazines |
|
But there's still one place |
|
Where you don't have to fake it |
|
Down on Swing |
|
Street Down on |
|
Swing Street |
