|
I got the highest heels on the street |
|
But they don't get me as high as |
|
I wanna be |
|
I was born in the |
|
Summer of |
|
SamWhen all of |
|
New York City held its breath |
|
Scared to death |
|
A regular boy in the |
|
Reagan time |
|
With my BB gun and satellite |
|
And boy, did |
|
I want my |
|
MTVAnd everything was easy |
|
So easyIt was easy |
|
My, oh my, oh my |
|
We had promises to keep |
|
I sing, my, oh my, oh my |
|
Many miles to get to |
|
Union Street |
|
If we could just get to |
|
Union Street |
|
Then everything will be alright |
|
You were the prettiest girl in town |
|
But your mom was a druggie, she kicked you around |
|
And everyone knew the word on the street |
|
Knew she was easy (so easy) |
|
So easyYour ma was easy |
|
So meet me there in the parking lot |
|
In that part of town that |
|
Jesus forgot |
|
And bring those pills you stole from your mom |
|
And we'll be here |
|
We'll be here |
|
And we'll be gone |
|
We'll be long gone |
|
My, oh my, oh my |
|
We got promises to keep |
|
Singing, my, oh my, oh my |
|
Can you tell me the way to get to |
|
Union Street? |
|
If we could just get to |
|
Union Street |
|
My, oh my, oh my |
|
We all have promises to keep |
|
In the days of falling stars |
|
With every house lit up on |
|
Union Street |
|
If we could make it to |
|
Union Street |
|
My, oh my, oh my |
|
It's such a long long way to go |
|
And nobody gets out alive |
|
But just as long as we got rock 'n' roll |
|
Everything will be alright |
|
Yeah, it'll be alright |
