Joe Jackson - Goin' Downtown lyrics

rate me

I could cool out

I couls hang loose

I could lay my head back in this comfortable noose

I could watch the paint dry

On these rented walls

Or I could run wild with the first wild thing that calls

Goin' downtown . . . goin' downtown

Goin' downtown . . . to stand 'round and stare

And put people down for not being there

Goin' downtown . . . and I'll see you there

But I saw you laugh

At that girl having fun

To show some emotion . . . just isn't done

You can look but don't touch

That's as far as it goes

You're only as good as the cut of your clothes

Goin' downtown . . . goin' downtown

Goin' downtown . . . to stand 'round and stare

And put people down for not being there

Goin' downtown . . . and I'll see you there
