GORDON LIGHTFOOT - On Yonge Street lyrics

rate me

See the people walkin' up and down

See the people movin' all around

On the streets of my hometown, on Yonge Street

Longest street in the world they say

Summertime soon slips away

I hope I'll see you one fine day on Yonge Street

Everywhere you go in a city by the lake

Back there in the flow you may give a hand a shake

Everyone you pass seems to wanna say hello

Even late at night on the freshly fallen snow

See the children jumpin' all around

See the parents looking up and down

Upon the streets of my hometown, on Yonge Street

It's a mean street if you choose

It's a lean street when you loose

An' in between street when you cruise along Yonge Street

Everywhere you go in a city by the lake

You'll be sure and find it's a case of give and take

Everyone you pass seems to wanna say hello

Even late at night when the streets are all aglow

It's the longest street in the world

With the most feet in the world

Another street where boy meets girl on Yonge Street

See the people walkin' up and down

See the people movin' all around

Those are the streets of my hometown, on Yonge Street

Everywhere you walk people almost say hello

Even late at night when the streets are all aglow

On Yonge Street

On Yonge Street
