|
Well the street lights shine |
|
Down on Blessing Avenue |
|
Lovers they walk by |
|
Holdin' hands two by two |
|
A breeze crosses the porch |
|
Bicycle spokes spin 'round |
|
Jacket's on, I'm out the door |
|
Tonight I'm gonna burn this town down |
|
And the girls in their summer clothes |
|
In the cool of the evening light |
|
The girls in their summer clothes |
|
Pass me by |
|
Kid's rubber ball smacks |
|
Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light |
|
Big bank clock chimes |
|
Off go the sleepy front porch lights |
|
Downtown the store's alive |
|
As the evening's underway |
|
Things been a little tight |
|
But I know they're gonna turn my way |
|
And the girls in their summer clothes |
|
In the cool of the evening light |
|
The girls in their summer clothes |
|
Pass me by |
|
Frankie's Diner's |
|
Over on the edge of town |
|
Neon sign spinnin' round |
|
Like a cross over the lost and found |
|
Fluorescent lights |
|
Flicker above Bob's Grill |
|
Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks "fill?" |
|
And says "penny for your thoughts now my poor Bill" |
|
She went away |
|
She cut me like a knife |
|
Had a beautiful thing |
|
Maybe you just saved my life |
|
In just a glance |
|
Down here on Magic Street |
|
Love's a fool's dance |
|
I ain't got much sense but I still got my feet |
|
And the girls in their summer clothes |
|
In the cool of the evening light |
|
The girls in their summer clothes |
|
Pass me by |
|
And the girls in their summer clothes |
|
In the cool of the evening light |
|
The girls in their summer clothes |
|
Pass me by |
|
La la la la, la la la la la la la |
|
La la la la, la la la la la la la |
|
La la la la, la la la la la la la |
|
La la la la, la la la la la la la |
