|
From a backwater town in |
|
OhioAll the way down to |
|
New Orleans |
|
Hiding deep in the bayou |
|
Waiting on a |
|
Northbound river queen |
|
For too many years now |
|
I've been the devil's own |
|
In a midnight rage |
|
I take the streets alone |
|
Living in the shadows |
|
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows |
|
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise |
|
Walking around there was a wound in my head |
|
For many long days |
|
I was left there for dead |
|
So many miles from the borderline |
|
Only half a man down on the streets tonight |
|
Living in the shadows, hiding in the shadows of night |
|
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows |
|
Wounded in the shadows, lying in the shadows |
|
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise |
|
Living in the shadows, hiding in the shadows of night |
|
Hiding in the shadows of night, wounded in the shadows |
|
Wounded in the shadows, lying in the shadows |
|
Down on the streets, down on the streets, down on the streets of paradise |
