Words and music by bob seger |
|
I remember standing on the corner at midnight |
|
Trying to get my courage up |
|
There was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtown |
|
I loved to watch her do her stuff |
|
Through the long lonely nights she filled my sleep |
|
Her body softly swaying to that smoky beat |
|
Down on mainstreet |
|
In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers |
|
I used to watch 'em through the glass |
|
Well i'd stand outside at closing time |
|
Just to watch her walk on past |
|
Unlike all the other ladies, she looked so young and sweet |
|
As she made her way alone down that empty street |
|
Down on mainstreet |
|
And sometimes even now, when i'm feeling lonely and beat |
|
I drift back in time and i find my feet |
|
Down on mainstreet |
|
Down on mainstreet |
