Lyrics Tim Buckley – Down In The Street

Down in the street
There’s a gunshot warnin’
Here comes that blue parade
Ready to save the day

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’
