[00:23.43] | Sleep like a baby, my little lady, |
[00:33.68] | Dream till the sunrise creeps into your eyes, |
[00:48.03] | |
[00:48.77] | Dream till the sunrise turns on the day |
[00:55.13] | In the Avenues and Alleyways, |
[00:59.89] | While you sleep there's a whole world coming alive, |
[01:06.44] | Able and his brother, fighting one another in and out of every dive, |
[01:12.62] | The Avenues and Alleyways, |
[01:14.62] | where the strong and the quick alone can survive, |
[01:21.11] | Look around the jungle, see the rough and tumble, |
[01:24.79] | Listen to a squealer cry, |
[01:27.03] | Then a little later in the morning paper, |
[01:31.96] | Read about the way he died |
[01:34.90] | Wake up my pretty, go to the city, |
[02:01.05] | Stay through the daytime, |
[02:08.66] | Safe in the sunshine, |
[02:16.02] | Stay till the daytime turns into night |
[02:23.39] | In the Avenues and Alleyways, |
[02:27.01] | Where a mans gotta work out which side he's on, |
[02:33.78] | Any way he chooses chances are he loses, |
[02:37.08] | No one gets to live too long, |
[02:39.77] | The avenues and alleyways, |
[02:42.27] | Where the soul of a man is easy to buy, |
[02:47.89] | Everybody's wheeling, |
[02:50.39] | Everybody's steeling, |
[02:52.08] | All the low are living high, |
[02:54.32] | Every city's got em, |
[02:58.21] | Can we ever stop em? |
[02:59.70] | Some of us are gonna try |
[00:23.43] | Sleep like a baby, my little lady, |
[00:33.68] | Dream till the sunrise creeps into your eyes, |
[00:48.03] | |
[00:48.77] | Dream till the sunrise turns on the day |
[00:55.13] | In the Avenues and Alleyways, |
[00:59.89] | While you sleep there s a whole world coming alive, |
