Downtown Life

Music by daryl hall, john oates, rick iontosca

Lyrics by daryl hall, john oates, sara allen



Do it downtown in from the outside

Yeah, find the scene & work it brother

Moving thru sound

City's like wild life

Overgrown & living undercover

Wound up so tight



We love the downtown life

Driftin' thru the day

Waiting for the nite, oh

Downtown life. it feels so right

It keeps me hangin' on



Velvet lou was a neighbor of mine

Now he walks the dog in jersey, brother

Yuppies in black doin' white collar crime

Scared away the. local color

But they can't steal the nite



We love the downtown life

Driftin' thru the day

Waiting for the nite, oh

Downtown life it feels so right

It keeps me hangin' on



Downtown life

Drifting thru the nite

Waiting for the lite to come

Downtown life it feels so right

It keeps me hangin' on



My baby knows she's got to go for this kind of life

`cause city love can't stand. to see the sunlite

Dawn patrol better leave me alone

`cause i can only take it for so long

Going down isn't hard to do

The king of clubs and.queen of hearts fall too

She says, "if you believe this is only a lonely time,

Stay at home boys the blues are lost on you"

Ain't it true



We love the downtown life

Drifting thru the day

Waiting for the nite, oh

Downtown life it feels so right

It keeps me hangin' on



Downtown life

Drifting thru  the nite

Waiting for the night to come

Downtown life it feels so right

It keeps me hangin' on
