Lyrics U.D.O. – Mean Streets
Text:
For God’s sake — you’re just like a brother
For God’s sake — not like any other
For God’s sake — you’re not just another man
For God’s sake — there’s no way of knowing
For God’s sake — there’s no way of showing
For God’s sake — it’s not just another crime
Down in the streets — it’s just dirty and mean
Down in the streets — we’re just living in fear
Down in the streets — we’re gonna burn and fry
’cause we’re living in mean streets
Mean streets
We’re living in mean streets
Mean streets
For God’s sake — we can’t keep a going
For God’s sake — we reap what we are sowing
For God’s sake — it’s not just another time
For God’s sake — another dead brother
For God’s sake — they’re all motherfuckers
For God’s sake — there’s no way to heal the blind
Down in the streets — dirty and mean
Down in the streets — living in fear
Down in the streets — we’re gonna burn and fry
Down in the streets — we’re gonna take you high
For God’s sake — it’s not just another crime
Down in the streets — it’s just dirty and mean
Down in the streets — we’re just living in fear
Down in the streets — we’re gonna burn and fry
’cause we’re living in mean streets
Mean streets
We’re living in mean streets
Mean streets
For God’s sake — we can’t keep a going
For God’s sake — we reap what we are sowing
For God’s sake — it’s not just another time
For God’s sake — another dead brother
For God’s sake — they’re all motherfuckers
For God’s sake — there’s no way to heal the blind
Down in the streets — dirty and mean
Down in the streets — living in fear
Down in the streets — we’re gonna burn and fry
Down in the streets — we’re gonna take you high
