Downtown lyrics

Artist  : Jackson browne 
Song : Downtown
 

Downtown people gotta work a little harder
working downtown
Downtown they got to think a little quicker
`cause they`re downtown
Downtown the breaks are harder
Downtown the thieves are smarter

I`ve got this place I`m renting
It cost me next to nothing downtown
Nobody comes around telling me I gotta turn the
sound down
Broadway -- down on the corner
The bible screamer, the plasma donor
Buses, carhorns, ghetto blasters
The shouts and cries of the human disasters

It`s all music
It`s all music
Downtown
It`s all music
It`s all music

I feel alright when I`m downtown
My feet are light when I`m downtown
I cast my hopes on the human tide
I place my bet and let it ride
I`m open wide when I`m downtown

Downtown there`s every kind of people walkin`
round downtown
Downtown there`s every language, every human
sound downtown
Downtown the nights are longer
Downtown the sights are stronger
Downtown wandering all around downtown
It`s all music

Eight blocks south of city hall
The rats run free and the winos crawl
Darkness falls on the vast machine
Where the future stalks the American dream

I feel alright when I`m downtown
My head feels light when I`m downtown
It`s all in sight when I`m downtown
I feel alright when I`m downtown
