BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - Walking In The Street lyrics

rate me

Oh Billy stares at Cherry in the hall

And walks out into the rain so blessed and tall

Standin' on the corner with a gun underneath his coat

Beneath the stars on the street

Oh on Lexington Avenue they stand

Velvet aces they case the promised land

Reachin' out across the hoods with both hands

Oh, tryin' to catch a ride

Tonight we're lovers in the cold

Running past the graveyards in the snow

Walking in the street with nowhere to go

And it's no, no, no

Oh and the getaway driver waits outside the store

He pulls away just as Billy runs out the door

Oh and Billy won't run anymore, no, no, no

Oh baby I can't lay the stars at your feet

Oh but I think we could take it all, just you and me

Oh come on, you'll see, there's a lot of room

For you baby, in this front seat

Tonight we're lovers on that road (in the snow)

Running past the graveyards in the snow

Walking in the street with nowhere to go

And it's oh, oh, oh
