Tim Buckley - Down In The Street Lyrics






Down in the street
There's a gunshot warnin'
Here comes that blue parade
Ready to save the day
Down in the street
There's a whole block burning
Shout out for rent control
I ride the gang patrol
Oh it's just another sign
That summer's comin'
City wars and flash floods and tornados
Festivals for rock and roll season
Beach talk baseball and a handy houshold hymns

Yes it's true in the U.S. of A
There's lots of room at the top
Oh but you can't sit down
On, no you can't sit down
And don't you know that boudoir
Looks just a ball and chain
Oh, no you can't sit down

All through the night
You hear gunshot warnings
This time it wasn't you
Paid your dues

All through the night
You hear the city moaning
But be a tomcat prowling
Baby, your stomach's growling
Oh, it's just another sign
That summer's comin'
City wars and flash floods and tornados
Festivals for rock and roll season
Beach talk baseball and a handy household hymns
